Preliminary Study for Quantitative Assessment of Sacroiliitis Activity Using Bone SPECT/CT: Comparison of Diagnostic Performance of Quantitative Parameters

ConclusionsThe quantitative analyses of bone SPECT/CT showed better performance in assessing active sacroiliitis than the planar bone scan. SPECT/CT parameters using the ratio of the SI joint to sacrum showed more favorable results than SUV parameters such as SUVmax, SUV50%, and SUV-AAZ.
