2. Fig. 1
(a) Sentinel node (SN) procedure in a prostate cancer patient: planar and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging with lead shielding of the prostate, 2h after transrectally injecting 120 MBq of technetium-99m nanocolloid. (b) To facilitate anatomic localization of the SNs, SPECT images were fused with the pelvic staging computed tomography scan.
