Standardized uptake value variations of normal glandular breast tissue at dual time point FDG-PET/CT imaging
Purpose: To study the relationship between (FDG) uptake expressed quantitatively as standardized uptake values (SUVs) in normal breast tissues and breast density, age, menopausal status determined during dual-time point FDGPET/CT imaging. Materials and Methods: maximum and average SUVs were determined in two hundred eighty four patients (all females; mean age 55.5 ± 14.1 range 13-84 years, 115 ...
متن کاملDual-time-point FDG-PET/CT Imaging of Temporal Bone Chondroblastoma: A Report of Two Cases
Temporal bone chondroblastoma is an extremely rare benign bone tumor. We encountered two cases showing similar imaging findings on computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and dual-time-point 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/CT. In both cases, CT images revealed temporal bone defects and sclerotic changes around the tumor. Most parts of the ...
متن کاملThe effect of age, menopausal state, and breast density on (18)F-FDG uptake in normal glandular breast tissue.
UNLABELLED Theoretically, the degree of (18)F-FDG uptake in the glandular tissues of the normal breast can affect the detection of breast cancer. The aim of this prospective study was to investigate relationships among age, menopausal state, and breast density and determine whether they affect (18)F-FDG uptake in normal glandular breast tissue. METHODS Among 250 newly diagnosed breast cancer ...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Effect of Tumor Position on Standardized Uptake Value Using Time-of-Flight Reconstruction and Point Spread Function
Objective(s): The present study was conducted to examine whether the standardized uptake value (SUV) may be affected by the spatial position of a lesion in the radial direction on positron emission tomography (PET) images, obtained via two methods based on time-of-flight (TOF) reconstruction and point spread function (PSF). Methods: A cylinder phantom with the sphere (30mm diameter), located in...
متن کاملRepeatability of Standardized Uptake Value in Oncologic 18F-FDG PET
Quantitative analysis can potentially improve the accuracy and consistency of 2-18F-fluoro-2deoxy-D-glucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET), particularly for the assessment of tumor response to treatment. Although not without limitations, standardized uptake value (SUV) has emerged as the predominant metric for tumor quantification with 18F-FDG PET. Growing literature suggests that...
