Evaluation of pelvic ring injuries using SPECT/CT

“…For detection of these lesions and of occult fractures SPECT/CT is another suitable imaging modality as bone metabolism is locally increased and perifocal haematoma, necrosis and calcification may occur. The resulting phosphate complex then bonds with the 99m Tc-DPD and the subtle lesion can be visualized [21,22]. In those cases, the additional metabolic component represents the major difference in detection of those additional pelvic ring lesions.…”
