         Aufgrund des meist regelhaft erhöhten Glukosestoffwechsels eignet sich das Bronchialkarzinom
            und seine Metastasen gut für die Darstellung durch die Positronen-Emissions-Tomographie
            mit [ F-18]Fluor-Deoxy-Glukose. Es ist eine der am ehesten besten untersuchten Indikationen
            an dezidierten Geräten. Der Stellenwert der Koinzidenzbildgebung bei dieser Fragestellung
            wird anhand eigener Daten und einer Literaturübersicht beleuchtet, ein Hauptaugenmerk
            liegt auf den Möglichkeiten und Grenzen der Methode im Vergleich zu den Modalitäten
            des konventionellen Stagings.
         
         
         
         Abstract
         
         The high utilisation of glucose by most types of bronchial carcinoma and its metastases
            makes imaging with of positron emission tomography using [F-18]fluoro-deoxy-glucose
            feasible. Lung cancer is one of the best proved indications of this methods for dedicated
            scanners. The significance of the coincidence technique (hybrid PET) is highlighted
            by own data and a review of literature, the possibilities and limitations of the method
            in comparison to the modalities of the conventional staging are the main focus of
            the paper.
