[79] reported uptake of Tc-99 m-bisphosponate in the lumbar spine in 50 patients. The quantification of diagnostic tracers is of great interest if one's aim is to evaluate the course of a disease. Another potential application in this field is the quantifi- cation of therapeutic ...
目的探讨溶骨性骨代谢增高病灶的SPECT/CT骨显像特点及与CT表现的相关性。 方法回顾性分析21例伴发骨转移的恶性肿瘤患者的 99Tc m-MDP SPECT/CT图像,其中男13例,女8例,年龄(60.52±6.85)岁,在分析骨代谢增高病灶图像特点的同时,探讨其放射性核素摄取的靶/本底比值(L/B)与CT值的相关性。采用单因素方差分析、两...
Planar whole-body scan showed heterogeneous tracer uptake in the lumbar spine with intense localisation to the right lateral aspect of L3. Integrated SPECT/CT of the lumbar spine detected active bone metabolism in the right L3/L4 facet joint in the presence of minimal signs of degenerative osteo...
Early planar scan of lumbar spine and pelvis (a) shows no hyperaemia. Delayed WB-BS, anterior and posterior views (b) show a focus of abnormal 99mTc-MDP uptake in left aspect of L5 vertebra, localized by SPECT/CT (c) to the left L-5 articular facet, consistent with spondylolysis ...
After obtaining a SPECT/CT scan of the lumbar spine a set of infiltrations of the medial branches was done with local anesthetics and placebo on different days. Patients and anesthetists were blinded to the results of SPECT/CT and to the infiltrated agents.ResultsIn a total of 29 study ...
Lumbar SUVmax and SUVmean increased significantly with the increase of BMD (r=0.638, 0.632, p<0.001). Conclusion: The SUV of lumbar spine in 99mTc -MDP bone SPECT/CT was significantly different among subjects with different BMD, and the SUV was positively correlated with BMD. These findings ...
1 Transaxial SPECT, CT and SPECT/CT fusion images through a lumbar vertebral body from two patients with breast cancer (upper and lower row). The focus of abnormal tracer accumulation in the upper row of images is explained by arthritis of the facet joint, exhibiting joint space narrowing, ...

BACKGROUND CONTEXT The management of neck and low back pain secondary to cervical and lumbar spondylosis remains a significant challenge, often necessitating advanced diagnostic techniques for effective diagnosis and treatment planning. Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT-CT) imaging, known ...
