Fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography predicts tumor differentiation, P-glycoprotein expression, and outcome after resection in hepatocellular carcinoma.
PURPOSE To investigate the diagnostic value of fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) for prediction of tumor differentiation, P-glycoprotein (P-gp) expression, and outcome in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Seventy HCC patients who underwent curative resection were prospectively enrolled in the study. FDG-PET was done 2 weeks preope...
متن کاملHistopathologic characterization of lung adenocarcinoma in relation to fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake on positron emission tomography.
BACKGROUND Fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake on positron emission tomography is reported to have prognostic significance in patients after resection of lung adenocarcinoma. However, its relationship with histopathologic features remains unknown. METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of 205 patients who had undergone surgical resection of primary lung adenocarcinoma (> 1.0 cm) afte...
متن کاملFactors associated with fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake in benign thyroid nodules.
Thyroid nodules that exhibit focal uptake of fluorine-18 ((18)F)-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) are relatively frequent. Although the clinical features and associated mechanisms of FDG-avid lesions in both thyroid cancer and cytologically indeterminate nodules have been extensively studied, not much information is available on benign nodules. Therefore, in this retrospective study, the clinical, sero...
متن کاملDifferent glucose uptake and glycolytic mechanisms between hepatocellular carcinoma and intrahepatic mass-forming cholangiocarcinoma with increased (18)F-FDG uptake.
UNLABELLED (18)F-FDG uptake in malignant tumors largely depends on the presence of facilitated glucose transporters, especially type 1 (Glut 1) and a rate-limiting glycolytic enzyme, hexokinase (HK) type II. Low expression of Glut 1 was reported in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), whereas high expression was found in cholangiocarcinoma. Immunohistochemistry and proteome analysis were performed t...

the defect. The ADO II is available in eight sizes with four waist diameters (3, 4, 5, and 6 mm) and there are two length options for each waist diameter (4 or 6 mm). In our case, [3] the device length was 4 mm and the waist diameter was 6 mm (with a circumference of 18.84 mm). However, the height of the mechanical valve was standard and was 5 mm, and its sewing cuff height was almost 4 mm with...
