Abstract

The spine is homogeneously osteosclerotic and which appears to have no particular abnormal findings, however, that was proved to be a result of multiple metastases from prostate cancer. We should consider the possibility of prostate cancer if we see a "bright spine" on X-ray examination.

Keywords: bone metastasis; low back pain; prostate cancer.
