Abstract「要旨」 胸部X線写真上, 肺に異常陰影を有する患者78例を対象として, 肺癌の診断過程におけるガリウムシンチグラフィの有用性をLog-likelihood-ratio (LLR) 法によって評価した. ガリウムシンチグラムの読影前に, 胸部X線像 (背腹像, 側面像, 前額断層像) が読影され, その所見を参考にして同じ読影医によってガリウムシンチグラムが読影された. その結果, LLRの平均値は0.191±0.308であり, 47例 (60.3%) がLLR 0.00を示し, LLR 1.0以上を示した症例はわずか2例であった. 肺癌の診断過程におけるガリウムシンチグラフィのスクリーニング検査としての意義は少ないと思われる. しかし, ガリウムシンチグラフィは肺癌におけるN2 (縦隔リンパ節) の検索において, sensitivity 60.0%, specificity 88.2%を示し, ガリウムシンチグラフィはN2の検索に有用であると思われる.

Abstract[Summary] To reassess prospectively clinical usefulness of Ga-67 imaging in abnormal shadow on chest roentgenogram, 78 patients were scintigraphed after intravenous injection of 111MBq (3 mCi) of Ga-67 citrate. Before and after Ga-67 scanning, the same physician completed two questionnaires indicating his differential diagnosis, diagnostic confidence (expressed as a percentage) and therapeutic plan, referring chest roentgenograms (dorsoventral and lateral views) and chest roentgen tomograms (frontal projection only) . The impact of the imaging of the physician's diagnostic confidence was expressed as a log-likelihood-ratio (LLR) . The mean log-likelihood-ratio (LLR) for this series was 0.191+-0.308 (n=78) , with 47 out of 78 (60.3%) patients demonstrating a LLR, 0.00. In only two out of 78 (2.6%) patients, a LLR greater than 1.0 was achieved. These results reflect the little impact of Ga-67 scanning on the decision-making process for lung cancer. However, Ga-67 scanning may be useful for detecting N2 (mediastinal lymphnode) and determing of the staging in patients with lung cancer, indicating a sensitivity of 60.0% and a specificity of 88.2%.
