ABSTRACT
This is a case report of a pediatric patient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and presenting with a rare finding of bilateral pulmonary calcification. The patient's pulmonary calcification was detected as an incidental finding during a routine bone scan performed to evaluate the patient's bone pains. Bone scintigraphy is one of the most sensitive and efficient modalities for detecting extra-osseous calcification.
