Table 8 Practical considerations for positron emission tomography vs single photon emission computed tomography

Modality	Advantages	Disadvantages
PET	Increased resolution	Cyclotron and radiopharmaceutical preparation Rapid repeat testing not possible[87]
SPECT	Lower cost More widely available. Dynamic SPECT give time course of ventilation	Lower spatial and contrast resolution

PET: Positron emission tomography; SPECT: Single photon emission computed tomography.
