Effect of duration of fasting and diet on the myocardial uptake of F-18-2-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose (F-18 FDG) at rest

Effect of regional hyperemia on myocardial uptake of 2-deoxy-2-[(18)F]fluoro-D-glucose.

2-deoxy-2-[(18)F]fluoro-D-glucose (FDG) may be used to predict glucose kinetics when the factor relating differences in transport and phosphorylation between compounds remains constant ("lumped constant"). It is not clear whether hyperemia alters that factor. In anesthetized swine, myocardial FDG uptake was estimated by positron emission tomography, during an intracoronary infusion of either ad...

(18)F-2-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose uptake in or adjacent to blood vessel walls.

Incidental (18)F-2-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose (FDG) uptake in blood vessel walls is sometimes demonstrated during routine oncologic imaging with positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT). FDG uptake in vessel walls can also be seen under some non-physiological conditions such as vasculitis and arteriosclerosis. Radiologists need to be aware of the diseases which can exhibit FDG uptak...

F-18 FDG uptake in transplanted heart.

Cladellas et al. concern patients who failed to achieve an adequate heart rate response; it is not clear whether heart rate decrease occurred in any patient. As we reported, only 1 of 14 patients with paradoxical sinus deceleration was taking beta-blockers. We mentioned in our report that all our patients fasted for at least 3 h before dobutamine stress echocardiography; mild hypovolemia may ha...
