In a 61-year old female with a history of breast cancer the whole-body scan (4 h p.i.) after intravenous injection of 576 MBq 99mTc-HMDP showed an accumulation of activity in the stomach and the whole intestines. The reason was an oral urine intake ("uropotia") taking place between the injection and the whole-body bone scan.
