The morphology, edge (speculated margins and lobule), size, density of pulmonary masses, and on\u2010chest CT images were reviewed. The SUVmax in ROI of pulmonary masses was calculated. <jats:italic>Results.<\/jats:italic> Among the 85 patients with lung masses, 59 patients presented with pulmonary malignant neoplasm and 26 patients with benign lesions. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were 89.8%, 61.5%, 81.2%, respectively, for PET measurement only, 88.1%, 65.4%, 81.2% for CT only, and 96.6%, 80.8%, 91.8% for PET\/CT. The size of pulmonary malignant neoplasm in the 59 patients was apparently correlated with the ROI\u2032s SUVmax (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic> = 0.617, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; .001). However, the size of pulmonary benign mass in the 26 patients was not correlated with the SUVmax. <jats:italic>Conclusion.<\/jats:italic> PET\/CT is of greater value in characterization of lung masses than PET and CT performed separately. The examination of lung tumor can be further specified by the correlation between the size of pulmonary malignant neoplasm and the ROI\u2032s SUVmax.\n<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2007\/17131","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,11,15]],"date-time":"2007-11-15T15:20:46Z","timestamp":1195140046000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["The Advantage of PET and CT Integration in Examination of Lung Tumors"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2007","author":[{"given":"Guangming","family":"Lu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zhongqiu","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hong","family":"Zhu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Linfeng","family":"Chang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yingxin","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jiang","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yane","family":"Zhao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2007,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_1_1_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00259-002-0924-0"},{"key":"e_1_2_1_2_2","first-page":"943","article-title":"Probability of malignancy in solitary pulmonary nodules using fluorine-18-FDG and PET","volume":"37","author":"Gupta N.
