Segmented linear correlations between bone scan index and prostate cancer biomarkers, alkaline phosphatase, and prostate specific antigen in patients with a Gleason score ≥7

Abstract: Technetium-99m methyl diphosphonate bone scintigraphy is relatively easily accessible for detecting bone metastases in prostate cancer patients. However, it is subjective and can be challenging to compare images taken at different time points. The bone scan index (BSI) is a more objective evaluation and allows for better comparison of images. Its correlation with other biomarkers of prostate cancer metastases such as prostate specific antigen (PSA) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is not clearly understood. This… Show more

“…Currently, bone scintigraphy is one of the first-line imaging techniques for staging and follow-up of PC bone metastasis, but the classical approach is only qualitative with low specificity. Some software-based indexes have been proposed to optimize bone scintigraphy medical reports [63][64][65][66]. The recent introduction of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) ligands has the potential to rapidly supersede bone scans with 99m Tc-MDP [67] when they have been demonstrated to be a cost-efficient imaging modality.…”
