Preliminary data indicate that positron emission tomography (PET) following injection of fluorodeoxyglucose F18 (FDG) is sensitive and specific for detecting malignant cells in chest tumors and mediastinal lymph nodes. We report a case of non-small cell lung cancer metastatic to clinically normal scalene lymph nodes that was correctly staged by FDG-PET.
初步数据表明,注射氟脱氧葡萄糖F18(FDG)后的正电子发射断层扫描(PET)对检测胸部肿瘤和纵隔淋巴结中的恶性细胞具有敏感性和特异性。我们报告一例非小细胞肺癌转移至临床上正常的斜角肌淋巴结,FDG-PET对其进行了正确分期。
