Harish Nagaraj Highlighted Diagnostic Utility of FAPI PET-CT in Metastatic Lung Cancer Detection

Harish Nagaraj, In Charge of the Integrated Molecular Imaging Centre at the Kenyatta University Teaching, Referral, and Research Hospital, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“We recently encountered a case of left iliac bone lytic lesion detected on CT scan highly suspicuous for malignancy who was sent for PET-CT to identify the primary tumor.
A FAPI PET-CT scan was performed, which revealed a primary lung lesion in the right upper lobe along with mediastinal lymph node metastases, confirming the diagnosis of metastatic lung cancer.
This case highlights the value of FAPI PET-CT in oncology in:
– Detecting occult primary tumors.
– Improving diagnostic confidence and staging.
– One of the unique advantages of FAPI PET-CT is its lack of physiological uptake in the brain, which allows for clear detection of brain metastases.
