Marrow scintigraphy using 99mTc colloids was performed in 20 patients with Paget's disease of bone and compared with skeletal scanning in each of them. As long as the regions explored were haematopoietically active, despite the advanced age of the patients, there was decreased marrow uptake in regions of increased uptake on the skeletal scan. Whilst increased uptake of pyrophosphate reflects bone hyperosteogenesis, decreased uptake of colloids reflects marrow fibrosis, and early histological sign of the disease. This scanning technique could be a new criterion in the surveillance of the therapeutic effectiveness of calcitonins or of diphosphonates.
