  • Title: [Localization by bone SPET of osteoid osteoma in the vertebral lamina].
    Author: Banzo I, Montero A, Uriarte I, Vallina NK, Hernández A, Guede C, Quirce R, Carril JM.
    Journal: Rev Esp Med Nucl; 1999; 18(1):47-9. PubMed ID: 10074218.
    Abstract:
    The combined use of bone SPET and CT was a good approach for diagnosing an osteoid osteoma of spine in a 16-year-old young woman with a history of several months of back pain. Pain was increased at night and relieved by aspirin intake. Plain films of the spine only revealed a scoliosis. Bone SPET demonstrated a focal increased activity in the left posterior elements of T12 vertebra. CT of this vertebra discovered a lytic lesion in the left lamina. An osteoid osteoma was removed by laminectomy.
