Representative SPECT/CT images of normal vertebrae, benign and malignant bone lesions. Transaxial (a), coronal (b) and sagittal (c) SPECT/CT images of a patient with normal thoracic and lumbar regions. The ellipses depicted the VOI of L2(using Siemens 3D Isocontour), SUVmax = 6.75; Sagittal CT (d) and SPECT/CT (e) images of a patient with T10 compression fracture (SUVmax = 13.06); Sagittal CT (f) and SPECT/CT (g) images showed a patient who had surgery of prostate cancer 5 years ago with T8, T10, and L5 bone metastases (SUVmax are 19.76, 18.27, 19.69 respectively)
