Figure 1
Axial CT only (A) and fused (B) axial single-photon emission CT (SPECT)-CT images demonstrate a right lower lobe soft tissue nodule near the diaphragm. It demonstrates same density on CT and same sulfur colloid uptake as liver. Sagittal non-contrast (G) and fused (H) SPECT-CT images demonstrate more nodules and better appreciate the geographic relationship between lung nodules, diaphragm and liver. SPECT-only images (C, transverse; D, sagittal oblique; E, sagittal and F, coronal) demonstrate the sulfur colloid uptake by nodules along the right diaphragm (arrows).
