Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The overall goal of this project is to investigate the diagnostic performance of integrated F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) and Dual Energy CT (DECT) imaging in determining the thoracic nodal status of small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) and non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and its impact on target volume delineation for image guided radiation therapy (IGRT) planning.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. PET-CT accuracy for lung tumor and thoracic adenopathy detection [One year]

      Knowledge gained during this study may potentially allow for an improvement in PET-CT accuracy for lung tumor and thoracic adenopathy detection, and for a more accurate definition of the RT target, decreasing the radiation dose delivered to normal tissue.
