1 Usefulness of Lung Perfusion Scintigraphy Before Lung Cancer Resection in Patients with Ventilatory Obstruction  Tommaso C. Mineo, MD, Orazio Schillaci, MD, Eugenio Pompeo, MD, Davide Mineo, MD, Giovanni Simonetti, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 82, Issue 5, Pages (November 2006) DOI: /j.athoracsur Copyright © 2006 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Planar acquisition lung perfusion scintigraphy (a) versus single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) (b). Planned surgery: left lower lobectomy. SPECT is better defining hypoperfused segments. The following formulas were used for predicted postoperative (ppo) forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) estimation in lobectomy: Planar lung scintigraphy = FEV1ppo = FEV1 × (1 – functional contribution of perfusion of the parenchyma to be resected); SPECT = FEV1 – (FEV1 × % perfusion of resected lobes).

3 Fig 2 The Bland Altman agreement test between planar acquisition lung perfusion scintigraphy (PALPS)-estimated and spirometry pulmonary function test (PFT)-measured postoperative forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) in liters (a) and in percent predicted (b). The black line is the mean and dashed lines are mean ± two standard deviations (SD).
