Hi, Kiddo.
Here's the result of the bone scan I had -- the cancer hasn't spread. Key points are underlined.

Narrative
[HST]: Prostate cancer with PSA of 19- rule out mets
EXAMINATION: TOTAL BODY BONE SCAN, 11/13/2015
CLINICAL INDICATION: Prostate carcinoma.
COMPARISON: No previous.
RADIOPHARMACEUTICAL: 27 mCi of Tc99m-MDP, I.V.
PROCEDURE: Following intravenous injection Tc99m-MDP, three hour
delayed images of the total body were obtained in anterior and
posterior projections.
FINDINGS:
In the right acromioclavicular joint, there is asymmetrically
increased radiotracer uptake. This is typical for degenerative
changes.
Left first digit carpometacarpal joint with degenerative changes.
Right medial proximal tibia uptake is compatible with degenerative
changes.
Small joint uptake of the bilateral feet and ankle are compatible
with degenerative changes.
No abnormally increased radiotracer uptake to suggest bone metastases.
Kidneys are symmetrical and normal.
That's it -- that's the report
Love, Dad.
