False-positive 18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography (FDG PET/CT) scans mimicking malignancies.
AIM 18-Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) is an imaging modality that is often used to help differentiate benign from malignant pulmonary lesions and it has been shown to be more efficacious than conventional chest computed tomography (CT). However, some benign lesions may also show increased metabolic activity which can lead to false-positive PET...
متن کاملFluor-18-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography in differentiated thyroid cancer.
Owing to the development of high resolution scanners and the new possibility of whole body scanning in recent years positron emission tomography has become more and more important in diagnostic imaging, especially for the diagnosis of malignant tumors and their metastases. Positron emission tomography (PET) is a special nuclear medical imaging technique, which is quantitative (correcting for ra...
متن کاملPositron emission tomography (PET) imaging with (18)F-based radiotracers.
Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a nuclear medicine imaging technique that is widely used in early detection and treatment follow up of many diseases, including cancer. This modality requires positron-emitting isotope labeled biomolecules, which are synthesized prior to perform imaging studies. Fluorine-18 is one of the several isotopes of fluorine that is routinely used in radiolabeling o...
متن کاملDiagnosis of prostatitis by 18-F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography
A 74-year-old man, who underwent renal transplantation in April 2007 for end-stage renal failure caused by chronic glomerulonephritis, was admitted in August 2008 for fever (38.5◦C) without orientation symptoms. He had history of essential hypertension, diabetes and ischaemic cardiopathy. The patient had presented two episodes of isolated fever in June 2007, with negative bacteriology, which re...
متن کاملFluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography metabolic imaging in patients with lymphoma.
Fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) provides unique information about the metabolic behavior of the malignant tumors, independent of morphological criteria. This technique is more sensitive in imaging lymphoma prior to therapy than conventional computed tomography (CT) imaging and Ga-67 scintigraphy. FDG-PET performed in patients with lymphoma offers importan...
