1 Pulmonary Atelectasis after Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy for a Central Lung Tumor 
Sashendra Senthi, MBChB, FRANZCR, Eric F Ullmann, MD, Suresh Senan, PhD, MRCP, FRCR  Journal of Thoracic Oncology  Volume 8, Issue 11, Pages e94-e95 (November 2013) DOI: /JTO.0b013e3182a00911 Copyright © 2013 International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer Terms and Conditions

2 FIGURE 1 Bronchoscopic and representative axial and coronal FDG-positron emission tomography images showing a T2aN0M0 squamous cell carcinoma adjacent to the bifurcation of the left main bronchus (white arrow).

3 FIGURE 2 Axial and coronal computed tomography images with the planned radiotherapy dose shown from 60 to 84 Gy (graduated color scale from blue to red) delivered to the planning target volume (cyan). Note the dose-gradient with the 75 Gy isodose (red) and higher doses adjacent to the major bronchi (yellow).

4 FIGURE 3 Bronchoscopic, axial FDG-PET CT and coronal CT images showing complete obstruction of the left main bronchus and total left lung atelectasis. Note the absence of increased FDG-PET uptake confirming the absence of tumor recurrence. FDG-PET CT, positron emission tomography computed tomography.
