Popis: | Objective: There is no definitive consensus on the methods to verify suspicious lesions in bone scintigraphy (BS) for bone metastases in patients diagnosed with prostate cancer (PCa). In this study, we aimed to compare the accuracy rates of imaging modalities used for patients with suspected lesions in BS. Design: Retrospective cross-sectional study Setting: Tertiary university hospital Subjects: One hundred and twenty-six PCa patients with bone metastases Intervention: BS was applied to all patients for bone metastases screening. Patients underwent computerized tomography, X-ray, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography for bone metastasis verification for suspicious lesions in BS. Main outcome measures: Comparison of metastasis detection rates of the imaging modalities and the evaluation of sensitivity of BS according to the location and the number of lesions. Results: MRI provided the highest rate of metastasis confirmation (81.3%). We found that the rate of detection of metastases in thoracal vertebrae, pubic bones, femur, L3-5 vertebrae and multiply involved cases was statistically significant (P |
