Three Dimensional Volume Rendering Fusion Images Using F-18 FDG PET/CT in Evaluation of Cholangiocellular Carcinoma / 핵의학분자영상

ABSTRACT

A 69-year old male with cholangiocellular carcinoma (CCC) was assigned to our department for whole body PET/CT scan. 18F- FDG PET/CT images showed an intense hypermetabolic lobulating mass(SUV(max)= 8.7 / size 11.4 mm) in the right hepatic lobe with multiple metastatic lung nodules. We made three dimensional volume rendering fusion images by using advantage workstation 4.3 (GE health care) which provide quick anatomic overview and improve the planning process significantly.1)
