Bone scintigraphy with combined single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and computed tomography (CT) has become widely used for the detection of bone metastases. However, calculation of the semi-quantitative standardized uptake value (SUV) requires measurement of the pre- and post-injection radioactivity of the radiopharmaceutical. This study aimed to compare measured and fixed input radioactivity values for quantitative SPECT/CT bone imaging to examine whether the fixed measurement method of radiopharmaceutical radioactivity could be used as an alternative method. Four different methods were used to quantify the Tc-99m hydroxymethylene diphosphonate input radioactivity: (A) measured pre- and post-injection radioactivity values; (B) measured pre-injection and fixed post-injection radioactivity values; (C) fixed pre-injection and measured post-injection radioactivity values; (D) fixed pre- and post-injection radioactivity values. All SPECT/CT acquisitions were analyzed using bone SPECT analysis software, and the semi-quantitative parameters (SUVpeak and SUVmean) were recorded and compared for each analytical method. Two semi-quantitative parameters showed significant differences between analytical methods A and B, A and D, and C and D. However, an additional subgroup analysis performed on patients whose median post-injection measured radioactivity value was <1.5 MBq showed no significant differences in parameters between all analytical methods. Measurement of the radiopharmaceutical radioactivity can be an alternative method because it reduces the volume of radioactivity post-injection. The simplified fixed measurement method of radiopharmaceutical radioactivity can be used as an alternative method in cases when measuring the radioactivity in quantitative bone SPECT/CT imaging is missed.
