Abstract
Chondrosarcomas are a heterogeneous group of cartilage-forming tumors. The tumor is graded on areas demonstrating the highest grade. A 71-year-old man underwent bone SPECT/CT to investigate a tumorous lesion on his right femur. Correlating with the pathological findings, the high-grade area showed higher uptake in bone SPECT/CT. This case suggests that bone SPECT/CT could aid in selecting an optimal biopsy site for diagnosis, and determining the proper treatment of patients with suspected chondroid tumors.
