  1. Bone metastasis

    File ScleroticMets.PNG thumb Sclerotic breast cancer metastasizes in the pelvis. Bone metastases , or cancer metastases to the bone , are a major clinical concern that can cause severe pain, bone fractures, spinal cord compression, hypercalcemia , and rapid degradation in the quality of life for patients. The bone microenvironment, and the ECM in particular, play a major role in the preferential metastasis to bone by certain cancers, mainly prostate cancer prostate and breast cancer . Types of cancer that most commonly metastasize to bone include Prostate cancer prostate , Breast cancer breast , and Lung cancer lung cancers , although all types of cancer are capable of doing so. Osteoblastic vs. osteolytic The behavior of bone metastases can be characterized as osteoblastic, osteolytic or mixed, based on the effect on surrounding bone. All are a result of dysregulation of the normal bone remodeling mechanisms, caused by tumor host cell interactions. Osteoblastic tumors cause an abnormal formation of bone by direct secretion of bone extracellular matrix ECM proteins and by indirect stimulation of osteoblast s. Osteolytic tumors cause abnormal resorption of bone by proteolytic enzymes and through actions on osteoclast s. Osteolysis can release sequestered growth factor s from the ECM, resulting in a cyclical feedback loop that leads to further stimulation of osteoclasts and continued bone resorption. As bone mass is lost, tumors can then continue to proliferate in their place and grow ... of the primary tumor. See also bone tumor Sources Castronovo, A. B. a. V. 1997 .

Nuclear medicine bone scans are one of a number of methods of bone imaging, all of which are used to visually detect bone abnormalities. Such imaging studies include magnetic resonance imaging MRI , X ray computed tomography CT and in the case of bone scans nuclear medicine . However, a nuclear bone scan is a functional test, which means it measures an aspect of bone metabolism , which most other imaging techniques cannot. The nuclear bone scan competes with the FDG PET scan in seeing abnormal metabolism in bones, but it is considerably less expensive. Nuclear bone scans are not to be confused with the completely different test often termed a bone density scan, DEXA or DXA , which is a low exposure X ray test measuring bone density to look for osteoporosis and other diseases where bones lose mass, without any bone re building activity. The nuclear medicine scan technique is sensitive to areas of unusual bone re building activity because the radiopharmaceutical is taken up by osteoblast cells which build bone. The technique therefore is sensitive to fractures and bone reaction to infections and bone tumors, including tumor metastases to bones, because all these pathologies trigger bone osteoblast activity. The bone scan is not sensitive to osteoporosis or multiple ...   more details
