The radiograph revealed sclerosis and thickened trabeculae of the vertebral body S1, pathognomonic for hemangioma (Fig. 1), but no findings explained the lower-back pain.
5-year-old male with focal accumulation of radiotracer in the small bowel. Delayed lateral view of SPECT/CT revealed no abnormal uptake of the bone-seeking radiopharmaceutical in the vertebral body S1.

The patient was referred for bone scintigraphy, which revealed no abnormal uptake of the Tc-99m-methylene diphosphonate in S1 (Tc-99m-MDP), as demonstrated in the delayed SPECT/CT (Fig. 2).
5-year-old male with focal accumulation of radiotracer in the small bowel. 3-D delayed bone scintigraphy revealed extra-osseous uptake of the radiotracer (99m-Tc-MDP) in the pelvis.
