Positron emission tomography (PET)-computed tomography (CT) has become a routine imaging modality in body oncology and is particularly well suited for the management of patients with lung cancer. Current clinical applications of PET-CT in patients with lung cancer include evaluation of indeterminate pulmonary nodules, initial staging of lung cancer, restaging of lung cancer following treatment, and radiation therapy planning. Contemporary PET-CT scanners allow comprehensive diagnostic PET and CT imaging in a single imaging session. Interpretation and reporting of PET-CT examinations of patients with lung cancer require a thorough and integrated approach taking advantage of the anatomic and metabolic information.
正电子发射断层扫描（PET）-计算机断层扫描（CT）已成为体部肿瘤学中的常规成像方式，尤其适用于肺癌患者的管理。PET-CT在肺癌患者中的当前临床应用包括对不明肺部结节的评估、肺癌的初始分期、治疗后肺癌的再分期以及放射治疗计划。当代PET-CT扫描仪允许在单次成像过程中进行全面的PET诊断和CT成像。对肺癌患者的PET-CT检查进行解读和报告需要采用全面且综合的方法，利用解剖学和代谢信息。
