ABSTRACT

La vertebroplastia percutánea es una técnica mínimamente invasiva alternativa al tratamiento médico y ortopédico en el tratamiento del dolor agudo-subagudo por fractura vertebral. La gammagrafía ósea evidencia el aumento del recambio metabólico en la fractura. Los nuevos equipos híbridos SPECT-TAC combinan las SPECT (single photon emission computed tomography ‘imágenes gammagráficas en adquisición tomográfica’) con la tomografía computarizada (TAC), permitiendo obtener mayor información conjunta, funcional y anatómica. Se presentan 5 casos seleccionados en los que las imágenes de la SPECT-TAC permitieron completar la información en cuanto al posible origen del dolor, y así valorar otras posibles causas del dolor vertebral o incluso revalorar la indicación de la vertebroplastia(AU)


Percutaneous vertebroplasty is a minimally invasive procedure that has shown excellent results in the treatment of back pain due to acute-subacute vertebral fracture. The bone scintigraphy shows the increase of metabolic exchange in the fracture. The new hybrid SPECT-CT equipment combines bone SPECT images with Computed Tomography (CT), making it possible to obtain more combined, functional and anatomical information. We present 5 selected patients studied by bone SPECT-CT in whom fused images made it possible to obtain a more precise localization of the pain origin, and thus assess other possible causes of the vertebral pain or even reassess the vertebroplasty indication(AU)
