Additive diagnostic value of thoracic SPECT/CT imaging in perugini grade 1 patients who underwent bone scintigraphy
SPECT/CT is mandatory in patients with mild mediastinal tracer uptake interpreted as Perugini grade 1. Among patients with Perugini grade 1 and confirmed [<sup>99m</sup>Tc]-DPD LV uptake on SPECT/CT images, progression to Perugini grade 2 was observed in all individuals who underwent nuclear medicine imaging follow-up.
