PET Imaging of 18F-FDG, 11C-methionine, 11C-flumazenil, and 11C-4DST in Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy
The use of positron emission tomography (PET) imaging in progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) has rarely been reported. We herein report a set of PET images in a 63-year-old patient with PML. In PML lesions, the uptake of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose, 11C-methionine, 11C-flumazenil, and [methyl-11C]4'-thiothymidine was decreased, increased, decreased, and unchanged, respectively. These re...
متن کاملProstate cancer: PET with 18F-FDG, 18F- or 11C-acetate, and 18F- or 11C-choline.
Prostate cancer is biologically and clinically a heterogeneous disease that makes imaging evaluation challenging. The role of imaging in prostate cancer should include diagnosis, localization, and characterization (indolent vs. lethal) of the primary tumor, determination of extracapsular spread, guidance and evaluation of local therapy in organ-confined disease, staging of locoregional lymph no...
متن کامل11C-DTBZ and 18F-FDG PET measures in differentiating dementias.
UNLABELLED Accurate, early differentiation of dementias will become increasingly important as new therapies are introduced. Differential diagnosis by standard clinical criteria has limited accuracy. PET offers the potential to increase diagnostic accuracy. (18)F-FDG studies detect metabolic abnormalities in demented patients, but with limited specificity. PET also offers the ability to quantify...
متن کاملNoninvasive k3 estimation method for slow dissociation PET ligands: application to [11C]Pittsburgh compound B
BACKGROUND Recently, we reported an information density theory and an analysis of three-parameter plus shorter scan than conventional method (3P+) for the amyloid-binding ligand [11C]Pittsburgh compound B (PIB) as an example of a non-highly reversible positron emission tomography (PET) ligand. This article describes an extension of 3P + analysis to noninvasive '3P++' analysis (3P + plus use of ...
متن کاملClinicopathologic and 11C-Pittsburgh compound B implications of Thal amyloid phase across the Alzheimer’s disease spectrum
Thal amyloid phase, which describes the pattern of progressive amyloid-β plaque deposition in Alzheimer's disease, was incorporated into the latest National Institute of Ageing - Alzheimer's Association neuropathologic assessment guidelines. Amyloid biomarkers (positron emission tomography and cerebrospinal fluid) were included in clinical diagnostic guidelines for Alzheimer's disease dementia ...
