Nuklearmedizinische Ultraschall-Fusionsbildgebung – Klinische Möglichkeiten und derzeitige Limitationen
Ultrasound Fusion Imaging in Nuclear Medicine – Clinical Impact and Current Limitations![](https://www.thieme-connect.de/media/10.1055-s-00051909/202302/lookinside/thumbnails/10-1055-a-2073-3660-1.jpg)
Zusammenfassung
Die nuklearmedizinische Ultraschall-Fusionsbildgebung lässt sich unter anderem für die Diagnostik der Schilddrüse und Nebenschilddrüsen klinisch sinnvoll einsetzen und erlaubt die zweifelsfreie räumliche Korrelation metabolischer und morphologischer Informationen. Allerdings beschränkt sich die praktische Anwendung aufgrund derzeit noch limitierender Aspekte auf ausgewählte Fälle und wissenschaftliche Untersuchungen. Die Entwicklung eines integrierten hybriden Detektors zur simultanen nuklearmedizinisch-sonografischen Bildgebung wäre eine Möglichkeit, die bestehenden Limitationen zu überwinden.
Abstract
Ultrasound fusion imaging of nuclear medicine modalities can be used sufficiently for the diagnosis of thyroid and parathyroid diseases as well as for other indications. Therefore, it can contribute to an unambiguous spatial correlation between metabolic and morphologic information. However, its practical application is limited to selected cases and scientific purposes. The development of an integrated hybrid detector for simultaneous fusion imaging maybe helpful to overcome current limitations.
