Abstract

Single-photon emission computerized tomography in combination with conventional computer tomography (SPECT/CT) is an emerging technology that may hold great clinical value to the orthopaedic knee surgeon. Post-operative knee pain is a familiar condition seen in most orthopaedic clinics. Here, we present the value of SPECT/CT in three such cases of pain after surgical treatment of knee osteoarthritis (high tibial osteotomy, medial unicompartmental arthroplasty, total knee arthroplasty). In these patients with post-operative knee pain, SPECT/CT has proved to be beneficial in establishing the diagnosis and providing guidance for further treatment.
