Multi-modality nuclear medicine imaging: artefacts, pitfalls and recommendations
Multi-modality imaging is rapidly becoming an essential tool in oncology. Clinically, the best example of multimodality imaging is seen in the rapid evolution of hybrid positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) and single positron emission computed tomography (SPECT)/CT scanners. However, use of multi-modality imaging is prone to artefacts and pitfalls. Important artefacts tha...
متن کاملDiagnosing atherosclerosis makes Nuclear Medicine a tissue imaging modality.
Atherosclerosis can be identified by fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography ((18)F-FDG PET/CT) and is associated with cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality. Inflammation and classification appear jointly in the formation of atherogenesis. Arterial calcification has been also determined by CT, by (18)F-FDG PET and also in the last few years by (18...
متن کاملRadiolabeling and Biodistribution of new dual modality nanoparticle probe in Nuclear Medicine
Introduction: Dual-modality contrast agents, such as radiolabeled nanoparticles, are promising candidates for a number of diagnostic applications, namely SPECT imaging with MR imaging. So the aim of study was evaluating potential of Chitosan-Coated Magnetic Nanoparticles(SPION) labeled with 99mTc as new Dual-modality probes for liver Imaging. Materials and Methods:</st...
متن کاملMulti-modality imaging of pheochromocytoma
Pheochromocytoma, a rare neuroendocrine adrenal tumor, is often diagnosed by a combination of clinical, laboratory, and radiographic features. While the imaging features of this entity are variable, the use of complementary modalities often helps to target the diagnosis and assess the extent of the disease. We present a multi-modality evaluation of a pheochromocytoma, with CT, MR, MIBG, and pat...
متن کاملMulti-modality compressed breast imaging
ABSTRACT Measurement of breast tissue response to external stimulation has the potential to unveil additional dynamic biomarkers of disease states. Recently tumor contrast generated by breathing-gas induced vascular changes has been demonstrated using both BOLD imaging [1] and MRIguided near infrared diffuse optical tomography [2]. At the same time, in the biomedical optics community, temporall...
