C-acetate PET imaging in prostate cancer
The patient population with a rising PSA following definitive local therapy represents the second largest group of prostate cancer patients [1]. These patients are characterized by a rising marker following definitive local therapy with either surgery or radiation, and by definition have no evidence of disease on standard imaging studies [2]. By some estimates, approximately 50,000 men in the U...
متن کاملThe clinical use of PET with (11)C-acetate.
The aim of this review is to evaluate clinical applications of (11)C-acetate positron emission tomography (PET). Acetate is quickly metabolized into acetyl-CoA in human cells. In this form it can either enter into the tricarboxylic acid cycle, thus producing energy, as happens in the myocardium, or participate in cell membrane lipid synthesis, as happens in tumor cells. (11)C-acetate PET was or...
متن کاملC-11 Choline and FDG PET/CT Imaging of Primary Cholangiocarcinoma – a Comparative Analysis
Objective(s): This study aimed to compare the diagnostic values of 11C-choline and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in patients with cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). Methods: This prospective study was conducted on 10 patients (6 males and 4 females), aged 42-69 years, suspected of having CCA based on CT or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) resu...
متن کاملApplication of C-11-acetate positron-emission tomography (PET) imaging in prostate cancer: systematic review and meta-analysis of the literature.
To review the literature on the application of (11) C-acetate positron-emission tomography (PET) imaging in prostate cancer. We systematically reviewed the available literature and presented the results in meta-analysis format. PubMed, SCOPUS, ISI web of knowledge, Science Direct, Springer, and Google Scholar were searched with 'Acetate AND PET AND Prostate' as keywords. All studies that evalua...
متن کاملMolecular imaging of prostate cancer with PET.
Molecular imaging is paving the way for precision and personalized medicine. In view of the significant biologic and clinical heterogeneity of prostate cancer, molecular imaging is expected to play an important role in the evaluation of this prevalent disease. The natural history of prostate cancer spans from an indolent localized process to biochemical relapse after radical treatment with cura...
