A member asked:
I had a bone scan yesterday but could only see the computer when they did my hands . both my wrists and knuckles where bright white . is this normal ?

Bone scan: Increased uptake in the hands is nonspecific. If it is near the joints (knuckles) it is likely degenerative joint disease / arthritis. If it is at the shaft of the bone it could be a fracture if there is a history of trauma.
