Novel Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography of Diffuse Parenchymal Lung Disease Combining a Labeled Somatostatin Receptor Analogue and 2-Deoxy-2 [F] Fluoro-D-Glucose

Novel Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography of Diffuse Parenchymal Lung Disease Combining a Labeled Somatostatin Receptor Analogue and 2-Deoxy-2 [F] Fluoro-D-Glucose

We prospectively investigated the potential of positron emission tomography (PET) using the somatostatin receptor (SSTR) analogue 68 Ga-DOTATATE and 2-deoxy-2[ 18 F]fluoro-D-glucose ( 18 F-FDG) in diffuse parenchymal lung disease (DPLD). Twenty-six patients (mean age 68.9 ± 11.0 years) with DPLD wer...
