Case 20
Clinical History:
A 55 year-old recent Chinese immigrant was noted to have a sclerotic T11 vertebral body on routine chest x-ray. He was asymptomatic, specifically denying back pain or other bone pain. A bone scintigram was recommended to further evaluate the thoracic vertebral abnormality and to investigate other bone lesions.
