Clinical impact of 99mTc-HDP SPECT/CT imaging as standard workup for foot and ankle osteoarthritis.
Objective: The primary aim of this study was to assess to what extent 99mTc-HDP Single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) will lead to change of diagnosis and treatment, in patients with suspected foot and ankle osteoarthritis (OA). Secondary aim was to assess the intraobserver variability.
Methods: Retrospectively 107 patients, with suspected foot and/or ankle OA of which a SPECT/CT was made, were included for analysis. All the clinical and radiological data were randomized and blinded before being scored by one experienced orthopaedic surgeon. Firstly, based on the clinical data and conventional radiographs, a diagnosis and treatment plan was scored. Secondly, the observer accessed the SPECT/CT and could change the diagnosis and treatment plan. Additionally, the intraobserver reliability was determined by data of 18 patients that were added in twofold to the dataset, without awareness of the observer and by calculating the κ values.
Results: The diagnosis changed in 53% (57/107) and treatment plans changed in 26% (28/107) of the patients. Intraobserver reliability for the conventional workup was k = 0.54 (moderate strength of agreement), compared to k = 0.66 (substantial strength of agreement) when SPECT/CT data were added.
Conclusions: This study describes the influence of SPECT/CT on diagnosis and treatment plans in patients with suspected symptomatic OA. Also, it shows SPECT/CT leads to a higher intraobserver variability. We believe SPECT/CT has a promising role in the workup for foot and ankle OA.
Advances in knowledge: In addition to what was found in complex foot and ankle cases, this study shows that in patients with non-complex foot and ankle problems, SPECT/CT has a substantial influence on the diagnosis (and subsequent treatment plan).
