11C-choline PET in diagnosis and staging of lung cancer: report of 54 cases
C-choline PET in the diagnosis and staging of lung cancer. Methods Fifty-four patients who were verified with pulmonary shadows by CT scanning received
11
C-choline PET in which standardized uptake values (SUVs) were used to evaluate the lesions. The results were compared with pathological data. Results ① For detecting of the primary lung cancer tumors
11
C-choline PET had a sensitivity of 77.27%
a specificity of 70.00%
and an accuracy o
f 75.93%. If the cases of alveolar carcinoma were excluded
these values were 91.43%
70.00% and 86.67%
respectively. ② For detecting the mediastinal lymph node metastases
the above-mentioned values of
11
C-choline PET were 87.50%
91.43% and 95.20% respectively. Compared with the data of pathological examination
the sensitivity of CT and
11
C-choline PET were 47.37% (18/38) and 86.84% (33/38) respectively in the detection of lymph nodes. Conclusion
11
C-choline PET is very useful in evaluating lung cancer (excluding the alveolar carcinoma) on the diagnosis and clinical staging. For the detection of mediastinal lymph node metastases
