The type of test of bone scan which the patient underwent is known as <u>MRI of the skeleton.</u>

This is because an MRI scan of the skeleton can prepare bone scans in 3 dimension images.

MRI scan of the skeleton shows the full details of bone structures like ligaments, tendons, and soft tissue. It is also used in creating internal images of the body during health diagnosis.

In this case, the patient underwent a scan to reveal the details of his bones, such as spine and ribs, and internal organs such as adrenals and liver.

Hence, it is concluded that the type of test of the bone scan she underwent is an MRI scan of the skeleton.
