Fifty-one patients with primary lung cancer were evaluated using 67Ga citrate scintigraphy with respect to detection of peripheral primary, hilar metastasis, and mediastinal metastasis. The results demonstrated the necessity for an understanding of the criteria used in considering the gallium scintigram as either positive or negative, as well as the instrumentation employed in performing the test before any meaningful sensitivity and specificity figures can be derived within a given institution. Only with this understanding can actual strategy for instituting invasive procedures be achieved.
对51例原发性肺癌患者采用枸橼酸镓闪烁扫描术评估外周原发性肿瘤、肺门转移及纵隔转移情况。结果表明,在给定机构得出任何有意义的敏感度和特异度数据之前,有必要了解判定镓闪烁扫描图为阳性或阴性所采用的标准,以及进行该检查所使用的仪器设备。只有在了解这些情况后,才能制定出实施侵入性检查的实际策略。
