Diagnosis of bone metastases in breast cancer: Lesion-based sensitivity of dual-time-point FDG-PET/CT compared to low-dose CT and bone scintigraphy

We compared lesion-based sensitivity of dual-time-point FDG-PET/CT, bone scintigraphy (BS), and low-dose CT (LDCT) for detection of various types of bone metastases in patients with metastatic breast cancer. Prospectively, we included 18 patients with recurrent breast cancer who underwent dual-time-...

Prospectively, we included 18 patients with recurrent breast cancer who underwent dual-time-point FDG-PET/CT with LDCT and BS within a median time interval of three days. A total of 488 bone lesions were detected on any of the modalities and were categorized by the LDCT into osteolytic, osteosclerotic, mixed morphologic, and CT-negative lesions. Lesion-based sensitivity was 98.2% (95.4–99.3) and 98.8% (96.8–99.5) for early and delayed FDG-PET/CT, respectively, compared with 79.9% (51.1–93.8) for LDCT, 76.0% (36.3–94.6) for BS, and 98.6% (95.4–99.6) for the combined BS+LDCT. BS detected only 51.2% of osteolytic lesions which was significantly lower than other metastatic types. SUVs were significantly higher for all lesion types on delayed scans than on early scans (P<0.0001). Osteolytic and mixed-type lesions had higher SUVs than osteosclerotic and CT-negative metastases at both time-points. FDG-PET/CT had significantly higher lesion-based sensitivity than LDCT and BS, while a combination of the two yielded sensitivity comparable to that of FDG-PET/CT.
