11C-Methionine-PET in Multiple Myeloma: A Combined Study from Two Different Institutions
11C-methionine (MET) has recently emerged as an accurate marker of tumor burden and disease activity in patients with multiple myeloma (MM). This dual-center study aimed at further corroboration of the superiority of MET as positron emission tomography (PET) tracer for staging and re-staging MM, as compared to 18F-2`-deoxy-2`-fluoro-D-glucose (FDG). 78 patients with a history of solitary plasma...
متن کامل11C-Methionine-PET in Multiple Myeloma: Correlation with Clinical Parameters and Bone Marrow Involvement
Multiple myeloma (MM) remains an essentially incurable hematologic malignancy originating from clonal plasma cells. This study evaluated the usefulness of the radiotracers (11)C-methionine (MET) and (18)F-2`-deoxy-2`-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) for staging and re-staging in MM. 43 patients with MM underwent both MET- and FDG-PET/CT for staging or re-staging within 3±2 days. Scans were compared on ...
متن کامل11C-Methionine-PET: A novel and sensitive tool for monitoring of early response to treatment in multiple myeloma
Multiple myeloma (MM) remains an essentially incurable hematologic malignancy. However, new treatment modalities and novel drugs have been introduced and thus additional tools for therapy monitoring are increasingly needed. Therefore, we evaluated the radiotracers 11C-Methionine (paraprotein-biosynthesis) and 18F-FDG (glucose-utilization) for monitoring response to anti-myeloma-therapy and outc...
متن کاملPET Imaging of 18F-FDG, 11C-methionine, 11C-flumazenil, and 11C-4DST in Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy
The use of positron emission tomography (PET) imaging in progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) has rarely been reported. We herein report a set of PET images in a 63-year-old patient with PML. In PML lesions, the uptake of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose, 11C-methionine, 11C-flumazenil, and [methyl-11C]4'-thiothymidine was decreased, increased, decreased, and unchanged, respectively. These re...
متن کامل[PET using 11C-methionine in recognition of pseudoprogression in cerebral glioma after combined treatment].
The purpose of the study was to evaluate the value of PET using 11C-methionine (PET-Met) for distinction between true glioma progression and pseudoprogression (PsPr). 72 patients with treated cerebral glioma investigated by PET-Met were identified from prospective database. Entry criteria included new or progressive MR imaging enhancing lesions within first 6 months after irradiation and defini...
