Quantitative comparison between single-photon emission computed tomography and positron emission tomography imaging of lung ventilation with 99mTc-technegas and 68Ga-gallgas in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: A pilot study

Quantitative comparison between single-photon emission computed tomography and positron emission tomography imaging of lung ventilation with 99mTc-technegas and 68Ga-gallgas in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: A pilot study

The aim of this study was quantitative comparison between 68Ga-Gallgas positron emission tomography (PET) and 99mTc-Technegas single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) for lung ventilation function assessment in patients with moderate-to-severe obstructive pulmonary disease and to identify...
