Diagnostic efficacy of 18F-FDG PET/CT in patients with adrenal incidentaloma

18F-FDG PET versus 18F-FDG PET/CT for Adrenal Gland Lesion Characterization: a Comparison of Diagnostic Efficacy in Lung Cancer Patients

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to assess the diagnostic efficacy of integrated PET/CT using fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) for the differentiation of benign and metastatic adrenal gland lesions in patients with lung cancer and to compare the diagnostic efficacy with the use of PET alone. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty-one adrenal lesions (size range, 5-104 mm; mean size, 16 mm) were evaluated ret...

Diagnostic performance of 18F-FDG PET-CT in patients presenting with secondary neck nodes from an unknown primary

Introduction: Clinical examination and even anatomical imaging may fail to identify primary site of malignancy in patients presenting with cervical nodal metastasis. 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Computed Tomography (18F-FDG PET-CT) is known to overcome the limitations of anatomic imaging. Methods: Sixty-three (63) patient...

FDG PETCT in colorectal cancer

Colorectal cancer represents the second most common malignancy worldwide, with approximately one million newly diagnosed cases each year, and is the fourth leading cause of cancer mortality. This article provides an overview of the role of FDG (fluorodeoxyglucose) PET (positron emission tomography) CT (computed tomography) for assessment in patients with colorectal cancer. A summary of key lear...
