摘要
Pulmonary perfusion SPECT-CT fusion images were used to characterize CT manifestations of intrapulmonary arteriovenous communications (AVC) causing right-to-left shunt and hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS). After scanning the whole body and obtaining multiple view images of the lung, deep-inspiratory breath-hold (DIBrH) SPECT was obtained in 2 patients with HPS, which was automatically and three-dimensionally co-registered with DIBrH CT. In both patients, the whole body scan depicted systemic organs and confirmed the existence of right-to-left shunt. DIBrH SPECT-CT fusion images showed that perfusion defects were predominantly located at subpleural reticulo-nodular opacities and/or dilated vessels in the lung base. Subpleural reticulo-nodular opacities and/or dilated vessels in the lung base appear to be characteristic CT manifestation of intrapulmonary AVC in HPS.
