Objectives: The prognosis of patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is dismal with a
median survival not exceeding 18 months. For the fact that the tumor stage remains the most …

To determine its usefulness, we evaluated 111In-DTPA-Octreotide (octreotide scintigraphy)
in the initial staging of 19 patients with histologically proven small cell lung cancer (SCLC) …
