Routinely, there is a visual basis to nuclear medicine reporting: a reporter subjectively places a patient’s condition into one of multiple discrete classes based on what they see. The addition of a quantitative result, such as a standardised uptake value (SUV), would provide a numerical insight into the nature of uptake, delivering greater objectivity, and perhaps improved patient management. For bone scintigraphy in particular quantification could increase the accuracy of diagnosis by helping to differentiate normal from abnormal uptake. Access to quantitative data might also enhance our ability to characterise lesions, stratify and monitor patients’ conditions, and perform reliable dosimetry for radionuclide therapies. But is there enough evidence to suggest that we, as a community, should be making more effort to implement quantitative bone SPECT in routine clinical practice? We carried out multiple queries through the PubMed search engine to facilitate a cross-sectional review of the current status of bone SPECT quantification. Highly cited papers were assessed in more focus to scrutinise their conclusions. An increasing number of authors are reporting findings in terms of metrics such as SUVmax. Although interest in the field in general remains high, the rate of clinical implementation of quantitative bone SPECT remains slow and there is a significant amount of validation required before we get carried away.
