Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to compare conventional PET/CT scan performed 1 hour after injection of the radioactive tracer FDG (PET/CT[1]) with PET/CT performed after 3 hours (PET/CT[3]) in a group of patients with biopsy verified lung cancer or high suspicion of lung cancer after initial work-up (chest x-ray and CT of thorax/upper abdomen), who are potentially operable.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment
Lung Cancer Other: Dual FDG-PET/CT

Detailed Description:

The investigators also want to:

  • To find the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy in PET/CT 1h and 3 h in the staging of lung cancer (N-/M-stage). Our gold standard is pathology, when not possible - follow-up (se Gold Standard 6.1.1)
  • To compare SUVmax with the expression of GLUT1 and G-6-Pase in tumors
  • To compare the expression of GLUT1 with the activity of G6Pase
  • To compare SUVmax, RI, tumor/liver ratio, GLUT1 and G-6-Pase with the occurrence of relapse within a year after curative surgery

Group/Cohort Intervention/treatment
lung cancer or high suspicion of lung cancer
After initial work-up (chest x-ray, CT of thorax and upper abdomen, spirometry) found to have surgically resectable lung cancer

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Sensitivity, specificity and accuracy [ Time Frame: After staging or 1 year of follow up ]
    To find the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy in PET/CT 1h and 3 h in the staging of lung cancer (N-/M-stage). Our gold standard is pathology, when not possible - follow-up


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Occurence of relapse [ Time Frame: 1 year follow up after surgery ]
    • To compare SUVmax, RI, tumor/liver ratio, GLUT1 and G-6-Pase with the occurrence of relapse within a year after curative surgery


Biospecimen Retention:   Samples With DNA
Fresh frozen sample of primary lung cancer tumor
