Brief Summary

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an increasing public health problem and the number of patient with chronic kidney disease is increasing worldwide. Bone abnormalities are found almost universally in patients with CKD requiring dialysis and in the majority of patients with CKD stages 3-5. Chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD) is a complex disorder of bone and mineral metabolism, which is associated with disorder in circulating levels of hormones and development of secondary hyperparathyroid disease. The abnormalities of mineral homeostasis impair bone remodeling and mineralization and results in cortical and trabecular defects and an increased fracture risk. There is also an association with increased morbidity and mortality. CKD-MBD is also associated with development of calcification of the blood vessels. During the last decade it has been increasingly acknowledged that mineral and bone disorder contribute to the excessively high cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease. The diagnosis of mineral bone disorder and the underlying bone histology in CKD patients is challenging. The treatment of renal osteodystrophy (ROD) and especially the treatment of fractures in this patient group, depends on the underlying bone histopathology and bone turnover. The gold standard for diagnosing the subtypes of ROD is bone biopsy, but it is invasive and requires considerable expertise regarding quantitative histomorphometry and interpretation. Plasma parathormone (PTH) measurement is commonly used to evaluate these patients, and generally extremely high or low PTH levels predict the underlying bone disorder. Still PTHs ability to correctly estimate turnover in bone is limited. Several biomarkers such as tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRAP5b) and procollagen type 1 N-terminal propetide (PINP) has been investigated, but no biomarker in clinical use has yet been proven suitable or superior to PTH to estimate overall bone histology. 18F-NaF positron emission tomography (18F-NaF PET) is a noninvasive quantitative imaging technique that allows assessment of regional bone turnover at clinically relevant sites. 18F-NaF is a bone-seeking tracer, which reflects remodeling of bone and osteoblast activity25. 18F-NaF serves as an efficient tracer to measure metabolic changes in bone. A correlation between histomorphometric markers such as bone formation rate (BFR) and tracer activity in the 18F- NaF PET scan in CKD patients has previously been shown in one small study. This study's goal is to evaluate, if 18-NaF-Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (18F-PET-TT) can be used in the assessment of CKD patients. The hypothesis is that 18F-PET-TT correlates with the histomorphometry of bone biopsy and with the calcification score in CKD patients and that 18F-PET-TT maybe can be used as a diagnostic imaging technique in the future.
