We compared the usefulness of single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) and lung perfusion scintigraphy (LPS) for predicting postoperative lung function by comparing patients with borderline lung function.
A total of 274 patients who underwent simultaneous LPS and SPECT/CT and had a forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) or diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO) under 80% were included. The % uptake by LPS was calculated by the posterior-oblique method. The concordance and difference of the % uptake, predicted postoperative (ppo) FEV1 and ppoDLCO as determined by 2 methods were evaluated. The association between ppo values and actual postoperative FEV1 and DLCO was examined. Subgroup analysis was conducted in redo-operation cases.
The % uptake of each lobe, except the right middle lobe, showed fair concordance (concordance correlation coefficients for right upper, middle, lower, left upper and lower lobe = 0.61, 0.37, 0.71, 0.66 and 0.69, respectively). ppoFEV1 and ppoDLCO also revealed high concordance between both methods (concordance correlation coefficient = 0.93 for ppoFEV1 and concordance correlation coefficient = 0.92 for ppoDLCO) without a significant difference (P = 0.42 for ppoFEV1; P = 0.31 for ppoDLCO). Both ppoFEV1 and ppoDLCO showed a significantly high correlation with the actual FEV1 (r = 0.77, P < 0.01 for LPS, r = 0.77, P < 0.01 for SPECT/CT) and DLCO (r = 0.62, P < 0.01 for LPS, r = 0.62, P < 0.01 for SPECT/CT). High concordance of % uptake, ppoFEV1 and ppoDLCO was present in redo-operation patients.
Both LPS and SPECT/CT showed high predictability for actual postoperative lung function, and LPS showed good performance to estimate ppoFEV1 and ppoDLCO with reference to SPECT/CT, even in redo-operation cases.
通过比较肺功能临界患者,我们比较了单光子发射计算机断层扫描/计算机断层扫描(SPECT/CT)和肺灌注闪烁扫描(LPS)在预测术后肺功能方面的效用。
纳入274例同时接受LPS和SPECT/CT检查且1秒用力呼气量(FEV1)或一氧化碳弥散量(DLCO)低于80%的患者。LPS的摄取百分比通过后斜位法计算。评估两种方法测定的摄取百分比、预测术后(ppo)FEV1和ppoDLCO的一致性和差异。检查ppo值与实际术后FEV1和DLCO之间的关联。对再次手术病例进行亚组分析。
除右中叶外,各肺叶的摄取百分比显示出较好的一致性(右上叶、中叶、下叶、左上叶和下叶的一致性相关系数分别为0.61、0.37、0.71、0.66和0.69)。ppoFEV1和ppoDLCO在两种方法之间也显示出高度一致性(ppoFEV1的一致性相关系数 = 0.93,ppoDLCO的一致性相关系数 = 0.92),且无显著差异(ppoFEV1的P = 0.42;ppoDLCO的P = 0.31)。ppoFEV1和ppoDLCO与实际FEV1(LPS的r = 0.77,P < 0.01;SPECT/CT的r = 0.77,P < 0.01)和DLCO(LPS的r = 0.62,P < 0.01;SPECT/CT的r = 0.62,P < 0.01)均显示出显著的高度相关性。再次手术患者的摄取百分比、ppoFEV1和ppoDLCO具有高度一致性。
LPS和SPECT/CT对实际术后肺功能均具有较高的预测性,并且即使在再次手术病例中,LPS在参考SPECT/CT的情况下,在估计ppoFEV1和ppoDLCO方面也表现良好。
