Value of SPECT/CT over planar imaging during Tc-99m MDP triple phase bone scintigraphy for detection of osteomyelitis in patients with stage IV pressure ulcers
Conclusion: SPECT/CT imaging has a significant added diagnostic value over planar imaging in accurately detecting osseous involvement with stage IV pressure ulcers. It significantly reduced equivocal results by accurate uptake localization, reducing false positive results due to other associated pathologies and reducing false negative results due to overlap by other structures or difficult patient positioning.
