A novel PET index, 18F-FDG-11C-methionine uptake decoupling score, reflects glioma cell infiltration.
UNLABELLED The linear correlation between (11)C-methionine PET and tumor cell density is not well conserved at the tumor border in glioma. A novel imaging analysis method, voxelwise (18)F-FDG-(11)C-methionine PET decoupling analysis (decoupling score), was evaluated to determine whether it could be used to quantitatively assess glioma cell infiltration in MRI-nonenhancing T2 hyperintense lesion...
متن کاملAssessing Glioma Cell Infiltration Using A Fiber Coherence Index: A DTI Study
Introduction Malignant glioma is one of the most lethal tumors that strikes adults in their prime. Despite advances in diagnosis and treatment, prognosis remains dismal largely due to the infiltrating nature of the tumor cells and the inability to detect these cells using conventional imaging techniques. It has been reported that glioma infiltration occurs preferentially along the white-matter ...
متن کاملDiagnosis of Brain Tumors Using Amino Acid Transport PET Imaging With 18F- Fluciclovine: A Comparison Study With L-Methyl-11C-Methionine PET Imaging
Objective(s): 18F-fluciclovine (trans-1-amino-3-[18F] fluorocyclobutanecarboxylic acid, [FACBC]) is an artificial amino acid radiotracer used for positron emission tomography (PET) studies, which is metabolically stable in vivo and has a long half-life. It has already been shown that FACBC-PET is useful for glioma imaging. However, there have been no reports evaluating the efficiency of FACBC-P...
متن کاملRepeatability of Standardized Uptake Value in Oncologic 18F-FDG PET
Quantitative analysis can potentially improve the accuracy and consistency of 2-18F-fluoro-2deoxy-D-glucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET), particularly for the assessment of tumor response to treatment. Although not without limitations, standardized uptake value (SUV) has emerged as the predominant metric for tumor quantification with 18F-FDG PET. Growing literature suggests that...
متن کاملFactors influencing the pattern and intensity of myocardial 18F-FDG uptake in oncologic PET-CT imaging
Introduction:Myocardial 18F-FDG uptake is highly variable in oncologic whole body 18F-FDG PET/CT studies, ranging from quite intense to minimal distribution. Intense or heterogeneous myocardial 18F-FDG uptake is undesirable as it may interfere with the visual or quantitative evaluation of tumoral invasion and metastases in pericardium, myocardiu...
