متن کاملOptimal 2-[18F]fluoro-2-deoxy-d-galactose PET/CT protocol for detection of hepatocellular carcinoma
BACKGROUND Positron emission tomography (PET) with the liver-specific galactose tracer 2-[(18)F]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-galactose ((18)F-FDGal) may improve diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The aim of this study was to test which of three different (18)F-FDGal PET protocols gives the highest tumour-to-background (T/B) ratio on PET images and thus better detection of HCC tumours. METHODS T...
متن کاملProduction system for 18F-2-deoxy-2-fluoro-D-glucose--a trial for automatic production.
We have developed a production system for 18F-2-deoxy-2-fluoro-D-glucose (18F-2FDG), which assures reliable production with easy handling and reduces radiation exposures to the operator. Chemical procedures in this system are the same as manual method developed in NIRS. This system has 2 operation modes; one is remote controlled manual operation mode and the other is microcomputer controlled au...
متن کاملPositherapy: targeted nuclear therapy of breast cancer with 18F-2-deoxy-2-fluoro-D-glucose.
Breast cancer remains a major cause of cancer death in women in the United States. Novel therapies are needed for patients when standard treatments are ineffective. We have recently shown on a cellular level the therapeutic potential of positrons in malignancy. Here, we report for the first time positron therapy with (18)F-2-deoxy-2-fluoro-D-glucose ((18)F-FDG) in a breast cancer animal model t...
