There are limits to check the lesion as inserting a breast implant patients. So the application of BSGI based on Nuclear Medicine examination has increased. In this study, therefore we confirmed the effect of the image applying to breast implants in Breast Specific Gamma Imaging. We utilized Dilon 6800 BSGI scanner and developed the phantom. The self-development phantom was a rectangular shape of 230 × 190 × 80 mm size and had 5 spheres which consisted of diameters of 10, 13, 17, 22, 28 mm in central part. We injected 99mTcO4 into the self-development phantom in the proportion of four to one and made each additional phantom filled with 0.9 % sodium chloride, silicon and paraffin. Each additional phantom was placed between detector and self-development phantom. Each image was acquired five times depending on the type and thickness of the additional phantom. Statistical analysis with SPSS ver.18 was applied. In the test of variation according to the thickness of all additional phantoms, as the phantoms which 0.9% sodium chloride, silicon and paraffin increased, the attenuation variation was higher(P<0.005). There was no significant difference in the attenuation variation and the quality of image for type of the additional phantom. Therefore, if the effect of the image applying to breast implants in Breast Specific Gamma Imaging is confirmed, the higher diagnostic value can be achieved.
