Analysis of quantitative [I-123] mIBG SPECT/CT in a phantom and in patients with neuroblastoma.

The results demonstrate quantitative accuracy to better than 10%, and both consistent SUV calculation between 2 different SPECT/CT scanners for 9 tissues, and low intrapatient measurement variability for quantitative SPECT/CT analysis in a pediatric population with neuroblastoma. Quantitative SPECT/CT offers the opportunity for objective analysis of tumor response using [I-123] mIBG by normalizing the uptake to injected dose and patient weight, as is done for PET.
