In order to confirm the accuracy of ECT (emission computed tomography) scanning imaging in the diagnosis of lung histoplasmosis is higher than CT (computed tomography) scan. We retrospect a lung histoplasmosis patient, he was examined by the CT scan and ECT scanning, respectively. Results showed that lung cancer for CT diagnosis and large benign lesions for F-FDG (F-fluorodeoxyglucose) ECT diag...

Image reconstruction of a short portion of a long object using longitudinally truncated cone-beam data is important for major medical computed tomography (CT) applications, especially cardiac CT. Cardiac CT is an essential imaging tool for the diagnosis and therapeutic assessment of heart defects, cardiovascular diseases, and lung diseases, but it is still limited by suboptimal image quality. R...

Gallium 67 citrate was evaluated with conventional scanning and emission computed tomography (CT) scanning as a method of pretreatment staging of the intrathoracic, especially mediastinal, spread of lung cancer. Of 31 patients with tumours of various histological types, the isotope was concentrated in the primary lesion in all but one. In 10 out of 12 patients who underwent surgical exploration...
