متن کاملSystemic atherosclerotic plaque vulnerability in patients with Coronary Artery Disease with a single Whole Body [FDG]PET-CT scan
Objective(s): Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of morbimortality with over half cardiovascular events occurring in the asymptomatic population by traditional risk stratification. This preliminary study aimed to evaluate systemic plaque vulnerability in patients with prior Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) with a single Whole Body [FDG] PET-CT scan in terms of plaq...
متن کاملPredictors of pathologic outcome of focal FDG uptake in the parotid gland identified on whole-body FDG PET imaging.
PURPOSE The purpose was to test whether patient's primary malignancy type and presence of F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-avid cervical lymph node(s) are predictors of pathologic outcome of incidental focal FDG-avid parotid lesions. BASIC PROCEDURES A retrospective cohort study of pathologically proven incidental cases was performed. MAIN FINDINGS Focal parotid FDG uptake in the setting of he...
متن کاملOptimized dose regimen for whole-body FDG-PET imaging
BACKGROUND The European Association of Nuclear Medicine procedure guidelines for whole-body fluorodeoxyglucose positron-emission tomography (FDG-PET) scanning prescribe a dose proportional to the patient's body mass. However, clinical practice shows degraded image quality in obese patients indicating that using an FDG dose proportional to body mass does not overcome size-related degradation of ...
متن کامل[Visualization of normal organs in whole-body FDG-PET imaging].
It is important to know FDG accumulation in the normal distributions for interpreting whole-body PET imaging for tumor detection. Twenty-eight normal subjects were studied with whole-body PET imaging and were examined the intensity of FDG uptake in major organs and the factors which caused it's variety. Emission images were acquired and images were reconstructed without attenuation correction. ...
