Abstract Angiogenesis plays a key role in tumor development and αvβ3 integrin are overexpressed on the endothelial cell surface of newly forming vessels. 18F-Alfatide has favorable properties for αvβ3 integrin targeting and showed potential for imaging angiogenesis with Positron Emission Tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT). In this study, 13 patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who underwent 18F-Alfatide PET/CT before surgery were enrolled. The uptake of all dissected lymph nodes (LNs) of 18F-Alfatide were assessed visually and analyzed with a maximum and mean standard uptake value (SUVmax, SUVmean) and SUV ratios. LN metastases were pathologically confirmed and 20 of 196 LNs were malignant. All malignant LNs were successfully visualized on 18F-Alfatide PET/CT in patients and the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy was 100.0%, 94.9% and 95.4%, respectively. SUVmax, SUVmean and SUV ratios in malignant LNs were significantly higher than in benign LNs for NSCLC patients (P |
