| dc.description.abstract | Prostate cancer is a common disease which occurs all over the world, affecting males as young
as those in their 40' s and as many as 90% of those who are in their 90' s. Skeletal metastasis is a
common complication of ca prostate and is known to cause high morbidity and mortality.
Scintigraphy is an imaging modality that is available and reveals the presence of disease prior to

information about the level of function within a body system unlike CT and plain radiography
which provide structural information. | en |
