Evaluation of the Solitary Pulmonary Nodule by Positron Emission Tomography Imaging
Thierry Bury,A. Dowlati,P. Paulus,Jean-Louis Corhay,Thérèse Benoit,J. M. Kayembe,Raymond Limet,Pierre Rigo,Marc Radermecker +8 more
TL;DR: PET-FDG imaging is a noninvasive technique, which appears highly accurate in differentiating malignant SPN from benign SPN, and the sensitivity and specificity of the method are 100 and 88%, respectively.

Staging of the mediastinum: value of positron emission tomography imaging in non-small cell lung cancer
Thierry Bury,P. Paulus,A. Dowlati,Jean-Louis Corhay,T. Weber,Benoît Ghaye,J. Schoffers,Raymond Limet,Adelin Albert,Pierre Rigo,Maurice Radermecker +10 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that positron emission tomography with 18-fluorodeoxyglucose is significantly more accurate than computed tomography in the mediastinal staging of non-small cell lung cancer.

Staging of non-small-cell lung cancer by whole-body fluorine-18 deoxyglucose positron emission tomography
TL;DR: Positron emission tomography using fluorine-18 deoxyglucose (FDG), showing increased FDG uptake and retention in malignant cells, has been proven useful to differentiate malignant from benign tissue and whole-body FDG PET can improve the diagnostic accuracy in the staging of NSCLC.

Soluble and cell-associated transferrin receptor in lung cancer
TL;DR: BAL cell-associated TfR may help in the differential diagnosis of lung cancer vs pneumonia and is negatively correlated with BAL supernatant neuron-specific enolase (NSE) (P = 0.01), suggesting that cell- associated TFR in BAL originates primarily from macrophages in this fluid.

Anaemia of lung cancer is due to impaired erythroid marrow response to erythropoietin stimulation as well as relative inadequacy of erythropoietin production
TL;DR: A very homogenous group of chemotherapy and radiotherapy‐naive patients with lung cancer were selected and serum erythropoietin and soluble transferrin receptor measurements suggested that the anaemia of non‐treated lung cancer is mainly due to an impaired erythroid marrow response to erymorphological stimulation.
