Reply: Regarding Dynamic bone imaging with 99mTc-labeled diphosphonates and 18F-NaF: mechanisms and applications.
Dynamic bone scanning with (99m)Tc-labeled diphosphonates and (18)F-labeled sodium fluoride provides functional information sensitive for subtle changes in bone turnover and perfusion, which assists the clinical management of numerous osseous pathologies. This article reviews the mechanisms of uptake of (99m)Tc-labeled diphosphonates and (18)F-sodium fluoride and discusses and compares the perf...
متن کاملEvaluation of Prostate Cancer Bone Metastases with 18F-NaF and 18F-Fluorocholine PET/CT.
18F-fluorocholine is a specific promising agent for imaging tumor cell proliferation, particularly in prostate cancer, using PET/CT. It is a beneficial tool in the early detection of marrow-based metastases because it excludes distant metastases and evaluates the response to hormone therapy. In addition, 18F-fluorocholine has the potential to differentiate between degenerative and malignant oss...
متن کامل18F-NaF Positive Bone Metastases of Non 18F-FDG Avid Mucinous Gastric Cancer
Detection of gastric cancer bone metastasis is crucial since its presence is an independent prognostic factor. In this case report, we would like to present 18F-NaF positive bone metastases of non 18F-FDG avid gastric mucinous cancer.
متن کاملImaging patients with breast and prostate cancers using combined 18F NaF/18F FDG and TOF simultaneous PET/ MRI
Stanford University, Department of Radiology, Division of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, USA Here we prospectively compared the combined 18F NaF/18F FDG PET/ MRI against 99mTc-MDP in patients with breast and prostate cancers. Twelve patients referred for 99mTc-MDP bone scans were prospectively enrolled from Oct 14 Jan 15. The cohort included 6 men with prostate cancer and 6 women with ...
متن کامل18F-Labeled NaF PET-CT in Detection of Bone Metastases in Patients With Preoperative Lung Cancer
We compared the diagnostic accuracy of F-labeled sodium fluoride (F-NaF) PET-CT with 99m-technetium methylene diphosphonate (Tc-MDP) single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) to detect bone metastases (BMs) in patients with preoperative lung cancer. Patients with lung cancer (n = 181) were examined with F-NaF PET-CT, and another 167 patients with lung cancer were examined with Tc-MDP S...
