Examining the role of molecular imaging in lung cancer from initial diagnosis through post-therapy follow-up with Dr. Ryan Avery, Associate Professor of Cardiovascular Imaging & Nuclear Medicine, Director of Nuclear Medicine, and Director of Advanced Imaging & Analytics Laboratory in the Department of Radiology at Northwestern Medicine.

Integration of SPECT/CT imaging and radionuclide therapy for an ever-increasing spectrum of cancers points to a promising future for such therapies. Explore this white paper and discover how accurate quantification of tracer concentration with SPECT/CT is potentially key to dosimetry and optimal therapy outcomes.

This white paper briefly explains the technical aspects of IQ•SPECT and demonstrates normal patterns and variations, as well as shows a series of clinical examples of ischemia and infarction.

This case highlights the utility of tumor and organ dosimetry from sequential quantitative SPECT/CT in metastatic prostate cancer.

This case demonstrates the value of ⁸²Rb myocardial perfusion PET/CT and blood flow estimation in the delineation of multivessel CAD and post-therapy stent occlusion.
