Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the value of 18FDG - PET/CT in diagnosing the stage of NSCLC. Research subjects and methods: prospective study on 60 newly diagnosed non-small cell lung cancer patients, who were scanned with 18FDG PET/CT at the imaging department, Hospital 18-9 from April 4 /2021 - August 2023. Results: Diagnosis of  the T stage between CT and PET/CT has very high similarity with kappa coefficient = 0.78. Diagnosis of the N and M stages between CT and PET/CT were weakly similar with kappa coefficients of 0.38 and 0.26, respectively. There were 24 patients (40%) with increased stage after PET/CT scan. Conclusion: Diagnosis of the T stage between CT and PET/CT has very high similarity, however diagnosis of the N and M stages between CT and PET/CT has weak similarity. 40% of patients have increased stage after PET/CT scan.
