Abstract
Primary pulmonary artery sarcoma (PAS) is a malignant neoplasm of the pulmonary vascular system originating from the intima, with clinical and imaging manifestations similar to those of pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE), and is often misdiagnosed. Spectral CT and PET/CT can clearly show the extent and metastasis of PAS and are valuable in visualizing adjacent structures such as lungs, bronchi, and mediastinum, providing a strong imaging basis for the diagnosis and differentiation of PAS, allowing treatment monitoring and follow-up.
期刊介绍:
The scope of AJNMMI encompasses all areas of molecular imaging, including but not limited to: positron emission tomography (PET), single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), molecular magnetic resonance imaging, magnetic resonance spectroscopy, optical bioluminescence, optical fluorescence, targeted ultrasound, photoacoustic imaging, etc. AJNMMI welcomes original and review articles on both clinical investigation and preclinical research. Occasionally, special topic issues, short communications, editorials, and invited perspectives will also be published. Manuscripts, including figures and tables, must be original and not under consideration by another journal.
