F-FDG uptake on PET in oral cancer
J Korean Assoc Oral Maxillofac Surg 2012;38:212-20) Objectives: Fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (F-FDG PET) is a non-invasive diagnostic tool for many human cancers wherein glucose uptake transporter-1 (GLUT-1) acts as a main transporter in the uptake of F-FDG in cancer cells. Increased expression of glucose transporter-1 has been reported in many human cancers. In t...
متن کاملFDG PET in the management of lung cancer
We describe a patient with newly diagnosed limy cancer. Staging was performed with CT and mediastinoscopy. FDG PET scan was performed and confirmed increased metabolic activity in the primary tumor as well as the hilar lymph node. Seven months after initial presentation, the patient was found to have two lytic lesions in the pelvis on plain radiograph. Hone scan was negative but PET demon...
متن کاملPhysiological uptake in FDG PET simulating disease
Many potential pitfalls and artefacts have been described in PET imaging that uses F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG). Normal uptake of FDG occurs in many sites of the body and may cause confusion in interpretation particularly in oncology imaging. Clinical correlation, awareness of the areas of normal uptake of FDG in the body and knowledge of variation in uptake as well as benign processes that ar...
متن کاملCorrelation Between Apparent Diffusion Coefficients and Standardized Uptake Values in Hybrid 18F-FDG PET/MR: Preliminary Results in Rectal Cancer
PURPOSE Fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose ((18)F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) and diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DWI) share the same role in clinical oncology and it is feasible to obtain the standardized uptake value (SUV) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) simultaneously by emerging the hybrid positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance (PET/MR). This study i...
متن کاملThe maximum standardized FDG uptake on PET-CT in patients with non-small cell lung cancer
BACKGROUND Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for approximately 80% of new diagnoses of pulmonary carcinoma. This study investigated the correlation between 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake in computerized tomography integrated positron emission tomography and tumor size, lymph node metastasis, and distant metastasis in patients with NSCLC. METHODS The records of 151 NSCLC patients (13...
