dc.description.abstractThe aim of this study is to investigate the effect of one-course chemotherapy on the pulmonary epithelial permeability. Eighteen patients (18 male; mean age: 59 ± 10 years) with lung cancer (11 non-small cell, 7 small cell) inhaled 40 mCi (1,480 MBq) 99mTc-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA). Thirty images of 1-min duration were acquired from posterior projection. The first 7 min of the decay-corrected time activity curves were used to calculate lung clearance half-time. Clearance half-times of 99mTc-DTPA from the peripheral regions of the lungs were 42 ± 19 min before and 56 ± 34 min after chemotherapy (p = 0.009); from the central regions, clearance half-times were 112 ± 94 min before and 160 ± 125 min after chemotherapy (p = 0.005). This decrease in clearance rate might be related to decreasing mucociliary clearance rate due to the toxic effect of the chemotherapy regimen on cilia movement and/or mucus structure. 99mTc-DTPA radioaerosol study can be used to monitor the toxic effects of chemotherapy on the pulmonary epithelium and possibly on mucociliary function.
