Prone position [18F]FDG PET/CT to reduce respiratory motion artefacts in the evaluation of lung nodules

2-Deoxy-2-[18F]fluoro-D-glucose ([18F]FDG) positron-emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) is widely used to evaluate lung nodules, although respiratory motion artefacts may occur. We investigated the value of prone position PET/CT (pPET/CT) in lung nodule evaluation compared with standard supine position PET/CT (sPET/CT). We retrospectively reviewed 28 consecutive patients (20 men; age, 65.6 ± 12.1 years) with a lung nodule (size,...
