Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) with the use of various tumor-tropic radiopharmaceutical preparations (RFP) has shown its effectiveness in the identification of tumor process in the lungs and metastatic lesions of mediastinal lymph nodes. In lung cancer such RFPs as Technetium-99m methoxy isobutyl isonitrile (MIBI) I) and 99mTc-depreotid got the largest traction. Increasingly frequently for the initial assessment of the prevalence ofprimary non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) there was used positron emission tomography combined with computed tomography (PET/CT) with 2-[18F]Fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose ([18F]FDG). The combined PET/CT image consider metabolic and morphological data, that allows to localize precisely the dissemination of the process and is used for the confirmation of the stage, detection of metabolically active extrathoracic lymph nodes, including those of the standard size (
