SNMMI: PET/MRI helps manage patients with chronic spinal pain
By Will Morton
F-18 FDG-PET/MRI scans can detect previously unidentified locations of chronic spinal pain.
June 23, 2025
Coronal fused FDG-PET/MRI image of a patient with right upper back pain demonstrates asymetric uptake in the right trapezius muscle without abnormality on MRI to suggest edema or denervation injury. Trigger point lidocaine injection of the area based on PET/MRI findings resulted in complete relief of symptoms (pain score reduced to 0 from a baseline of 6).

Top image displays a patient assessed for acute renal failure following third Lutathera administration where 3D dosimetry showed an average-per-administration kidney absorbed dose of 5 Gray, with total course of therapy being well under toxicity limits. Bottom image displays a patient’s absorbed dose to the colon after his first dose of Pluvicto where 3D dosimetry was used to confirm transient bowel obstruction leading to treatment management.
