High 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Uptake in Adrenal Angiomyolipoma
Adrenal angiomyolipoma is an extremely rare tumor, although computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging findings of adrenal angiomyolipoma have been reported, there are no reports regarding integrated fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography and computed tomography ((18)F-FDG PET/CT) imaging. We report a case of adrenal angiomyolipoma showing a significantly high u...
متن کاملHigh 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake in cardiac tumor
BACKGROUND Cardiac tumors, especially malignant, are rare but aggressive tumors that mostly arise from the mesenchymal cells and represent a challenging diagnosis for clinicians. Recently, fluorine-18-fluorodiography positron emission tomography and computed tomography (F-FDG PET/CT) is an increasingly popular new technique with diagnosis of tumor. METHODS We report a case of a right heart tu...
متن کاملPerformance of sodium iodide based (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography in the characterization of indeterminate pulmonary nodules or masses.
The purpose of this study was to document the accuracy of (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose ((18)F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) with sodium iodide detectors in characterizing indeterminate lung nodules or masses and in identifying additional extra-lesional findings. 50 consecutive patients without a confident diagnosis of malignancy on CT underwent (18)FDG PET with and without attenuation cor...
متن کامل18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Uptake and Tumor Hypoxia: Revisit 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose in Oncology Application
UNLABELLED This study revisited (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose ((18)F-FDG) uptake and its relationship to hypoxia in various tumor models. METHODS We generated peritoneal carcinomatosis and subcutaneous xenografts of colorectal cancer HT29, breast cancer MDA-MB-231, and non-small cell lung cancer A549 cell lines in nude mice. The partial oxygen pressure (pO2) of ascites fluid was measured. (18)F-FD...
متن کاملThe sensitivity of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography in the evaluation of metastatic pulmonary nodules.
OBJECTIVE Pulmonary metastasectomy is beneficial in select patients. The sensitivity of (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) for pulmonary metastasis is unknown. The aims of the study were to determine the accuracy of FDG-PET in detecting pulmonary metastasis and identify factors affecting sensitivity. METHODS All patients undergoing metastasectomy from September 20...
