Abstract

A reproducible technique of bone scanning in prostatic cancer is described that helps ensure the production of successive studies of highly comparable technical quality. Through an analysis of survival data based on changes in distribution, anatomic extent, and intensity of bone scan abnormalities in patients with advanced prostatic cancer, it is demonstrated that alterations in the appearance of the bone scan correlate closely with disease activity and have great prognostic significance.
