Article Synopsis
- This study evaluated the effectiveness of a triple-head gamma camera using SPECT with FDG in cancer patients, comparing its performance to FDG PET imaging.
- In tests, PET showed significantly higher sensitivity and better spatial resolution than SPECT, detecting all cancer foci while SPECT missed many, especially smaller lesions.
- The findings suggest that PET is the better choice for identifying small tumors, as SPECT's sensitivity was deemed insufficient.
