Highlights

SPECT/CT with iMAR in the evaluation of bony and prosthetic joint pathologies
An approximately 70-year-old female with bilateral femoral intramedullary prostheses presenting with severe pain and slight wound discharge underwent a 99mTc HMPAO-labeled leukocyte study on Symbia Pro.spectaTM SPECT/CT. This case demonstrates the value of using SPECT/CT with radiolabeled leukocytes and iterative metal artifact reduction (iMAR) in the evaluation of bony and prosthetic joint pathologies.

xSPECT Quant for the reproducible quantification of tracer concentration
An elderly male with a neuroendocrine tumor (NET) and liver metastases underwent sequential SPECT/CT on Symbia Pro.spectaTM SPECT/CT following a therapy dose of 177Lu DOTATATE. This case demonstrates the value of using xSPECT QuantTM for the reproducible quantification of tracer concentration, which is instrumental for accurate dosimetry.

SNMMI 2022 - Congress highlights
Highlights from the SNMMI 2022 annual meeting held June 11-14 in Vancouver, BC, Canada.

99mTc MDP SPECT/CT imaging in the evaluation of pediatric McCune-Albright syndrome
A seven-year-old female with café-au-lait skin spots, poly-fibrous dysplasia, and early on-set puberty underwent 99mTc MDP bone imaging with xSPECT BoneTM performed on a Symbia IntevoTM SPECT/CT scanner. This case demonstrates the use of xSPECT BoneTM technology to help detect abnormal skeletal metabolism in the evaluation of McCune-Albright syndrome.

99mTc MDP SPECT/CT imaging in the evaluation of mandibular osteomyelitis severity
A 67-year-old female with chronic pain and limited movement in her right temporo-mandibular joint along with difficulty opening her jaw underwent a 99mTc MDP bone study on a Symbia IntevoTM SPECT/CT scanner. This case demonstrates the use of xSPECT QuantTM to help evaluate the severity of mandibular osteomyelitis.
