This work provides an overview of the effectiveness of bone scintigraphy and its role in diagnosing various benign conditions in the Nuclear Medicine Department of the University Hospital of Fez. It analyzes the criteria for selecting scintigraphy as a diagnostic tool and outlines the principles, key features, and protocols involved. These details support clinicians in confirming their diagnostic reasoning when evaluating musculoskeletal lesions or bone abnormalities, guiding their choice of imaging modalities. Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP) is an extremely uncommon autosomal dominant condition marked by abnormalities in the big toes and the gradual development of extra-skeletal bone in specific anatomical formations.
