With the cases described, we strive to introduce single photon emission computerized tomography in combination with conventional computer tomography (SPECT/CT) to shoulder surgeons, illustrate the possible clinical value it may offer as new diagnostic radiologic modality, and discuss its limitations. SPECT/CT may facilitate the establishment of diagnosis, process of decision making, and further treatment for complex shoulder pathologies. Some of these advantages were highlighted in cases that are frequently seen in most shoulder clinics.
通过所描述的病例,我们力求向肩部外科医生介绍单光子发射计算机断层扫描与传统计算机断层扫描相结合的技术(SPECT/CT),阐明其作为一种新的放射诊断方式可能具有的临床价值,并讨论其局限性。SPECT/CT可能有助于复杂肩部疾病的诊断确立、决策过程及进一步治疗。其中一些优势在大多数肩部诊所常见的病例中得到了凸显。
