Patient-specific dosimetry within the field of molecular radiotherapy continues to pose a challenge owing to the difficulty in predicting marrow toxicity. This study examined the correlation between total pelvic spongiosa volume (TPSV) and independent variables, which include both readily measured or calculated anthropometric parameters (AP), and image-based skeletal measurements requiring computed tomography (CT) images or skeletal radiographs. Fourteen (14) patients (5 male and 9 female) undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) were subjected to modified pelvic CT scans. These scans were utilized to estimate TPSV, which was comprised of the volumes of spongiosa within the L5 vertebra, os coxae, sacrum, and both proximal femurs. The APs investigated included total body height (TBH), total body mass (TBM), body mass index (BMI), body surface area (BSA), maximum effective mass (MEM), lean body mass (LBM), and fat-free mass (FFM). Skeletal measurements were also obtained from the CT images of the pelvic region. Correlation coefficients (r) were obtained for TPSV and each set of APs as well as each set of skeletal measurements. Total body height (r = 0. 80) and os coxae height (r = 0.83) had the highest correlation coefficients of all the APS and skeletal measurements, respectively. FFM (r = 0.50), LBM (r = 0.42), TBM (r = 0.11), and BSA (r = 0.11) did not correlate well with TPSV, which accounts for approximately 45% of total spongiosa seen throughout the skeleton at sites associated with active bone marrow. Skeletal height measurements appear to have a much higher correlation with TPSV than either their corresponding skeletal width measurements or parameters that are a function of an individual's TBM.
