[18F]FLT-PET and [18F]FDG-PET in the evaluation of radiotherapy for laryngeal cancer.
The evaluation of response to radiotherapy in patients with laryngeal cancer is a challenge because of the difficulty to differentiate between post-therapy changes and recurrent or residual tumor. Positron emission tomography is a non-invasive imaging tool that may be helpful in this differentiation. In this study, [(18)F]-fluoro-3'-deoxy-L-thymidine ([(18)F]FLT), a proliferation tracer is comp...
متن کامل18F-FLT PET for visualization of laryngeal cancer: comparison with 18F-FDG PET.
UNLABELLED The feasibility of (18)F-3'-fluoro-3'-deoxy-L-thymidine PET (FLT PET) for detecting laryngeal cancer was investigated and compared with (18)F-FDG PET. METHODS Eleven patients diagnosed with or strongly suspected of having recurrent laryngeal cancer and 10 patients with histologically proven primary laryngeal cancer underwent attenuation-corrected (18)F-FLT PET imaging 60 min after ...
متن کامل18F-FLT PET/CT in Patients with Gastric Carcinoma
The aim of the study was to evaluate the usefulness of 18F-FLT PET/CT in the detection and differentiation of gastric cancers (GC). 104 consecutive patients (57 cases of adenocarcinoma tubulare (G2 and G3), 17 cases of mucinous adenocarcinoma, 6 cases of undifferentiated carcinoma, 14 cases of adenocarcinoma partim mucocellulare, and 10 cases of end stage gastric cancer) with newly diagnosed ad...
متن کاملEarly assessment of response to induction therapy in acute myeloid leukemia using 18F-FLT PET/CT
BACKGROUND We evaluated the suitability of 18F-fluorodeoxythymidine (18F-FLT) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) for assessment of the early response to induction therapy and its value for predicting clinical outcome in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Adult patients who had histologically confirmed AML and received induction therapy were enrolled. All patien...
متن کامل18F-FLT and 18F-FDG PET/CT in Predicting Response to Chemoradiotherapy in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma: Preliminary Results
The purpose of this study was to explore the feasibility of 18F-Fluorothymidine (18F-FLT) and 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in predicting treatment response of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Patients with NPC of Stage II-IVB were prospectively enrolled, receiving 2 cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT), followed by concurrent che...
