Comparative Study Clinical Trial

A prospective study comparing whole-body FDG PET/CT to combined planar bone scan with 67Ga SPECT/CT in the Diagnosis of Spondylodiskitis.

This study aimed to prospectively evaluate the usefulness of PET/CT using F-FDG in comparison to bone scan and Ga in the diagnosis of spondylodiskitis. ⋯ PET/CT is useful in the diagnosis of spondylodiskitis, with more accurate results than combined bone scan and Ga. SPECT/CT with Ga is recommended, especially when planar bone scan and Ga pattern is suggestive of spondylodiskitis.
