OBJECTIVE: Chronic low back pain, affecting up to 58% of the population, often stems from intervertebral disc degeneration. Although magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is commonly used for diagnostics, challenges arise in pinpointing pain sources due to frequent asymptomatic findings. Single-photon emission tomography (SPECT) integrated with computed tomography (CT) offers a promising approach, enhancing sensitivity and specificity. METHODS: In this retrospective study, spanning 2016 to 2022, SPECT/CT imaging was performed on 193 patients meeting specific criteria. We correlated SPECT/CT findings with lumbar MRI results, utilizing Pfirrmann and Rajasekaran classifications for disc degeneration and endplate damage assessment. Logistic regression analysis adjusted for age and sex evaluated associations. RESULTS: Of 965 spinal levels assessed, SPECT/CT positivity strongly correlated with higher Pfirrmann grades and Rajasekaran endplate classifications. Notably, Modic changes (MCs) on MRI displayed a nonsignificant relationship with SPECT/CT positivity. Significant associations were observed in older patients with positive MCs, Pfirrmann grades, and Rajasekaran classifications. CONCLUSIONS: This comprehensive study, the largest of its kind, establishes a significant link between SPECT/CT positivity and advanced lumbar degenerative changes. Higher Pfirrmann grades and increased Rajasekaran endplate damage demonstrated substantial correlations with SPECT/CT positivity. Notably, MCs did not exhibit such association. Our findings underscore the potential of SPECT/CT in identifying pain generators in degenerative spinal conditions, offering valuable insights for future interventions.
