Spleen scan demonstration of space-occupying lesions in patients with histiocytic lymphoma is a sensitive but not a specific finding.

Resolution of bone scan changes in hypertrophic pulmonary osteoarthropathy in untreated carcinoma of the lung.

The bone scan appearance of hypertrophic pulmonary osteoarthropathy (HPO) in patients with pulmonary neoplasms and a variety of other lesions has been described by several investigators. It is well known that after therapy, the bone scan changes resolve. This report deals with a patient who had no therapy for a pulmonary neoplasm. In a study done three months later, changes in his initial bone scan that had suggested pulmonary osteoarthropathy had resolved completely, even though the patient had no treatment for his carcinoma.
