Comparison of 18F-FDG PET and MRI in assessment of uterine smooth muscle tumors.
UNLABELLED The purpose of this study was to prospectively determine whether combined MRI and (18)F-FDG PET is more accurate than MRI in assessing nonbenign uterine smooth muscle tumors (USMTs). METHODS Seventy patients (mean age, 49+/-10 y; range, 28-77 y) suspected of having nonbenign USMTs underwent both MRI and (18)F-FDG PET before surgery. Results were evaluated using receiver-operating-c...

18F-FDOPA PET imaging of brain tumors: comparison study with 18F-FDG PET and evaluation of diagnostic accuracy.
UNLABELLED We evaluated the amino acid and glucose metabolism of brain tumors by using PET with 3,4-dihydroxy-6-(18)F-fluoro-l-phenylalanine ((18)F-FDOPA) and (18)F-FDG. METHODS Eighty-one patients undergoing evaluation for brain tumors were studied. Initially, 30 patients underwent PET with (18)F-FDOPA and (18)F-FDG within the same week. Tracer kinetics in normal brain and tumor tissues were...
متن کاملImaging proliferation in brain tumors with 18F-FLT PET: comparison with 18F-FDG.
UNLABELLED 3'-Deoxy-3'-(18)F-fluorothymidine ((18)F-FLT) is a recently developed PET tracer to image tumor cell proliferation. We characterized (18)F-FLT PET of brain gliomas and compared (18)F-FLT with (18)F-FDG PET in side-by-side studies of the same patients. METHODS Twenty-five patients with newly diagnosed or previously treated glioma underwent PET with (18)F-FLT and (18)F-FDG on consecu...
متن کامل18F-FDG PET/CT in Neurolymphomatosis: Report of 3 Cases
Neurolymphomatosis is a rare manifestation of non-Hodgkin lymphoma characterized by infiltration of peripheral nerves, nerve roots, plexus and cranial nerves by malignant lymphocytes. This report presents positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT)imaging with 2-deoxy-2-18F-fluoro-D-glucose (18F-FDG) in 3 cases of non-Hodgkin lymphoma with nerve infiltration, including one newly d...
