Evaluation of a Pneumotachograph (SPI) for the Production of PET and CT Acquisitions Synchronized With Breath for the Assessment of Extension of Lung Cancer

Not Applicable
Terminated
Conditions
Lung Nodule
Non Small Cell Lung Cancer
Interventions
Device: PET/CT 4D imaging in a synchronized mode centered on the thorax.
Registration Number
NCT01720186
Lead Sponsor
Institut Claudius Regaud
Brief Summary

This is a pilot study, single-center, prospective, open-label, to assess the acceptability and performance of the experimental medical device (SPI) used during an imaging examination (PET / CT 4D imaging in synchronized mode centered on the thorax). Each patient will be its own control, since the imaging examination will be synchronized simultaneously with the two systems: tested Medical Device (SPI) and reference Medical Device(RPM).

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Feasibility of the PET/CT synchronized exam with SPI device ("success" or "failure" )2 years

feasibility is evaluated in a composite end point (success will be obtained in case of concomitant success of the 4 sub-criteria assessment):

1. Tolerance / acceptability of the patient to breathe into SPI throughout the examination)

2. Detection of breath cycle of the patient by measuring dCycleSpi (dCycleSpi = Number of synchronization signals emitted by SPI / total number of breath cycle \* 100).

3. Accuracy of detection of inspiratory peak amplitudes with SPI medical device: by measuring dtSpi (dtSpi = standard deviation of the time lag between synchronization signals and maximum inspiratory amplitude for each cycle).

4. Production of images with a correct segmentation of BTV during PET/CT synchronized exam with SPI device"

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Measure of dCycleRpm (dCycleRpmi = Number of synchronization signals emitted by RPM / total number of breath cycle * 100)2 years
Measure of BTVrpm (= biologic tumoral volume)2 years
Accuracy of detection of maximum inspiratory amplitudes with RPM medical device: evaluated by measuring dtRpm2 years

dtRpm = standard deviation of the time lag between synchronization signals and maximum inspiratory amplitude for each cycle
