NLS-graphy performed by the sequential scanning of three anatomical parts allows more effective (in comparison to bone scanning) detection of bone metastases in the majority of anatomical parts. NLS-graphy by metatron 4025 hunter is a promising screening technique of bone metastases and it allows simultaneous detection of metastases in other organs; it helps the clarification of further examination program and the reduction of applied number of diagnostic techniques.

    Although for a variety of reasons NLS-graphy can not be regarded as an alternate method to bone scanning when performing screening test of bone metastases of breast cancer; such method may be used in patients with inconclusive results of bone scanning and high clinical risk of metastases formation and also in cases when correct information on spreading of metastatic process is necessary for the choice and planning of treatment method appropriate to the extent of lesions.
