SPECT-CT being a hybrid imaging scanner provides molecular and anatomical imaging in one go as a one stop shop. The addition of correlative CT scan to the planar skeletal scintigraphy gives better localization of the lesion, its characterization and attenuation correction as well. We present a brief overview of our institutional experience with hybrid SPECT-CT, as an adjunct to planar skeletal scintigraphy. SPECT-CT imaging improves the diagnostic yield and specificity of planar skeletal scintigraphy.
SPECT-CT作为一种混合成像扫描仪,能够一站式同时提供分子成像和解剖成像。在平面骨闪烁显像基础上增加相关CT扫描,能更好地对病变进行定位、特征描述以及衰减校正。我们简要概述了我院使用混合SPECT-CT作为平面骨闪烁显像辅助手段的经验。SPECT-CT成像提高了平面骨闪烁显像的诊断率和特异性。
