Appearance of hyperostosis frontalis interna on indium-111 leukocyte scans: potential diagnostic pitfall.

Abstract
The appearance of hyperostosis frontalis interna on an [111In]leukocyte scan is reported. Recognition of the potential for normal accumulation of 111In-labeled white blood cells within this common process involving the skull is necessary to avoid misdiagnosis.
