Methods： This study had local ethical committee approval, and all patients gave written informed consent. Fifty-three patients were revealed mandibular invasion by malignant tumor of the oral cavity underwent CT and SPECT/CT. The patients were divided into two groups： group A （invasion-periphery-type） and group B （invasion-center- type）. Two radiologists assessed the CT images and two nuclear medicine physicians separately assessed the $PECT/CT images in consensus and without knowledge of the results of other imaging tests. The extent of bone involvement suggested with an imaging modality was compared with pathological findings in the surgical specimen. Results： With pathological findings as the standard of reference, Group A： The extent of mandibular invasion by malignant tumor under- went SPECT/CT was 1.02 _＋ 0.20 cm larger than that underwent pathological findings. And the extent of mandibular invasion underwent CT was 1.42 ＋ 0.35 cm smaller than that underwent pathological examination. There were significant difference among the three methods （P 〈 0.01）. Group B： The extent of mandibular invasion by malignant tumor underwent SPECT/CT was 1.3 ＋ 0.39 cm larger than that underwent pathological examination. The extent of mandibular invasion underwent CT was 2.55 ＋ 1.44 cm smaller than that underwent pathological findings. There were significant difference among the three methods （P 〈 0.01）. The extent of mandibular invasion underwent SPECT/CT was the extent which surgeon must excise to get clear margins. Conclusion： SPECT/CT fusion imaging has significant clinical value in determining the extent of mandibular inva- sion by malignant tumor of oral cavity.展开更多

Methods： 18 cases of gingival carcinoma were processed infiltrated mandible by ^99mTc-MDP SPECT/CT fusion image and CT, and their scanning results compared with pathology findings. Results： Eleven of 13 cases with well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma showed positive images, one of 11 cases was false positive images by pathology findings, and 10 cases were exhibited infiltrated mandibles; 5 cases with moderately differentiated and poorly differentiated squamous call carcinoma showed positive images, pathology showed carcinoma call had infiltrated cavum ossis of mandible. Five of 18 cases were positive images by CT. Conclusion： ^99mTc-MDP SPECT/CT fusion imaging is a useful method in diagnosis of infiltrated mandible by gingival carcinoma.展开更多
