(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...
متن کاملIntense uptake of [F-18]-fluoro-2 deoxy-D-glucose in active pulmonary tuberculosis.
FDG PET is well recognized for its utility in cancer workup. Nonetheless, the differentiation between malignant and benign pulmonary lesions by FDG PET is challenging. The authors report three proved cases of pulmonary tuberculosis in acute active and open stages. The activities and extents of infection were demonstrable in FDG PET, which could not be observed in either chest radiograph or comp...
متن کامل18-Fluoro-deoxyglucose uptake in inflammatory hepatic adenoma: A case report
Positron emission tomography computed tomography (PET-CT) using 18-Fluoro-deoxyglucose (18FDG) is an imaging modality that reflects cellular glucose metabolism. Most cancers show an uptake of 18FDG and benign tumors do not usually behave in such a way. The authors report herein the case of a 38-year-old female patient with a past medical history of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and pheochr...
متن کاملEffect 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...
متن کاملClinical value of [(18)F]fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography for patients with fever of unknown origin.
We describe the diagnostic contribution of [(18)F]fluoro-deoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) scan in 58 consecutive cases of fever of unknown origin (FUO) and compare this new approach with gallium scintigraphy. This investigation was performed from March 1996 through October 1998 at Gasthuisberg University Hospital in Leuven, Belgium. A final diagnosis was established for 38 ...
