False-Positive Technetium-99m Sulfur Colloid Gastrointestinal Bleeding Study Due to Pagetʼs Disease

A case of asymmetric bone marrow activity due to Pagetʼs disease is shown as a potential cause for false-positive study in the evaluation of gastrointestinal bleeding. In such cases, delayed imaging is beneficial for the evaluation of progression of the abnormality and for outlining the bone marrow...
