INTRODUCTION
This study examined whether time-activity curves (TAC) can be used to differentiate between patients with and without Sjögren's syndrome using SPECT/CT.
METHODS
Thirteen xerostomia patients (5 with Sjögren's syndrome and 8 without Sjögren's syndrome) underwent SPECT/CT. Salivary gland secretion data were digitally observed, producing separate time-activity curves (TAC) for the submandibular glands and parotid glands using SPECT/CT. The salivary gland secretion fraction was defined as A (before stimulation test [counts/frame]) divided by B (after stimulation test [counts/frame]). The A/B ratios of patients with Sjögren's syndrome and those without Sjögren's syndrome were compared using the Mann-Whitney U test for nonparametric data.
RESULTS
The A/B ratio of parotid glands with Sjögren's syndrome (1.3 ± 0.2) was significantly lower than for those without Sjögren's syndrome (2.7 ± 0.7). The A/B ratio of submandibular glands with Sjögren's syndrome (1.3 ± 0.4) is significantly lower than for those without Sjögren's syndrome (1.8 ± 0.6).
CONCLUSION
The TAC for the submandibular glands and parotid glands using SPECT/CT may be useful for the objective and quantitative diagnosis of Sjögren's syndrome.
简介
本研究旨在探讨使用 SPECT/CT 是否可以通过时间-活性曲线（TAC）区分干燥综合征患者和非干燥综合征患者。
方法
13 例口干症患者（5 例干燥综合征，8 例非干燥综合征）进行了 SPECT/CT 检查。使用 SPECT/CT 对唾液腺分泌数据进行数字观察，为颌下腺和腮腺分别生成单独的时间-活性曲线（TAC）。唾液腺分泌分数定义为 A（刺激试验前[计数/帧]）除以 B（刺激试验后[计数/帧]）。使用非参数数据的曼-惠特尼 U 检验比较干燥综合征患者和非干燥综合征患者的 A/B 比值。
结果
干燥综合征患者的腮腺 A/B 比值（1.3±0.2）明显低于非干燥综合征患者（2.7±0.7）。干燥综合征患者的颌下腺 A/B 比值（1.3±0.4）明显低于非干燥综合征患者（1.8±0.6）。
结论
使用 SPECT/CT 的颌下腺和腮腺 TAC 可能有助于干燥综合征的客观和定量诊断。
