The presence of transient soft-tissue activity in the left side and the lower midportion of the abdomen on the early phases of the multiphase bone scan represents postprandial physiologic hyperemia of the small intestine. The bowel uptake was present in all 33 patients ingesting food between 15 min and 3.5 hr before scanning. In those patients who had not eaten within 4 hr of the study, only 25% demonstrated bowel activity. The observation of bowel uptake is important in differentiating a physiologic phenomenon from pathologic accumulations of activity. Pathology should be ruled out when bowel activity is not located in the usual left flank and lower mid-abdomen, or is present in a fasting individual.

Uterine visualization was found as a transient finding in the early phases of the biphasic and triphasic bone scans in 29 of 29 postmenarchial adolescent and young adult females studied regardless of phase of the menstrual cycle. This observation differs from reports of uterine uptake in Meckel's scanning where visualization occurred only in the menstrual or secretory phases of the cycle. None of 12 control patients (six males and six premenarchial females) showed intrapelvic activity on the blood-pool images. The accumulation of radiotracer in the uterus should be expected as a normal transient physiologic phenomenon in young women after menarche.
