Images of a 69-year-old man diagnosed with prostate cancer who had a history of endocrine therapy for two years. (a) The maximum intensity projection (MIP) image of F-18 FDG showed moderate radiotracer uptake in a thoracic vertebra. (e) The MIP image of Ga-68 DOTA-IBA demonstrated more lesions in the cervical vertebra and pelvis. (b) An osteoblastic lesion in the C3 vertebra right attachment (curved arrows) was negative on F-18 FDG (SUVmax = 2.0) and positive on Ga-68 DOTA-IBA (SUVmax = 8.7). (c) Another osteoblastic lesion in the T10 vertebra left side (arrowheads) was both positive on F-18 FDG (SUVmax = 5.2) and positive on Ga-68 DOTA-IBA (SUVmax = 35.0). (d) Osteoblastic lesions in bilateral ilium (dotted arrows and arrows) were negative on F-18 FDG (left: SUVmax = 1.4, right: SUVmax = 1.6) and positive on Ga-68 DOTA-IBA (left: SUVmax = 7.6, right: SUVmax = 8.7). Follow-up imaging three months later confirmed the presence of these bone metastases.
