Dual isotope F-18 FDG and Tc-99m RBC imaging for lung cancer
1Department of Radiology, VAMC and Indiana University, Indianapolis 46202, USA.
Purpose:
To produce fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) images with markers for normal organs and large blood vessels in patients with suspected lung cancer.
Methods:
Dual isotope SPECT images were made using F-18 FDG- and Tc-99m-labeled autologous red cells.
Results:
FDG-positive lesions are localized in relation to major structures when they are viewed in a fused rotating three-dimensional display or in cross sections.
Conclusions:
Tc-99m red cell and FDG fusion imaging provides relative location information for lung tumors.
