OBJECTIVE To investigate the value of fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET) imaging in patients with small cell lung cancer. METHODS From February 2000 to July 2003, 17 patients with small cell lung cancer were imaged with FDG-PET. FDG-PET scans were analyzed by visual method. The FDG-PET results were compared with the pathological results and results of follow-up survey. RESULTS 15 primary tumors were all FDG avid. By visual method 63 areas metastatic lymph nodes in 15 cases were revealed and more distant metastases outside the hemithoraxes were confirmed by FDG-PET than by routine examinations. FDG-PET corrected the diagnosis 5 cases from local disease (LD) to extended disease (ED). CONCLUSIONS FDG-PET has great value in staging and treatment of patients with small cell lung cancer.
