Calculating an estimate of tissue integrated activity in 18F-FDG PET imaging using one SUV value
BACKGROUND A kinetic model analysis was recently proposed to estimate the 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) integrated activity in an arbitrary tissue that uses tracer uptake and release rate constants. The aim of the current theoretical paper was to estimate 18F-FDG integrated activity using one standardized uptake value (SUV). METHODS A further kinetic model analysis allowed us to derive an ...
متن کاملFDG-PET staging and importance of lymph node SUV in head and neck cancer
OBJECTIVES The role of positron emission tomography (PET) with fluoro-deoxy-glucose (FDG) in the staging of head and neck cancer (HNC) is unclear. The NCCN guidelines do not recommend FDG-PET as a part of standard workup. The purpose of this report is to examine the role of FDG-PET imaging in altering management and providing prognostic information for HNC. METHODS Retrospective review of HNC...
متن کاملComparison of tumor volumes derived from glucose metabolic rate maps and SUV maps in dynamic 18F-FDG PET.
UNLABELLED Tumor delineation using noninvasive medical imaging modalities is important to determine the target volume in radiation treatment planning and to evaluate treatment response. It is expected that combined use of CT and functional information from 18F-FDG PET will improve tumor delineation. However, until now, tumor delineation using PET has been based on static images of 18F-FDG stand...
متن کاملRelation between nodule size and 18F-FDG-PET SUV for malignant and benign pulmonary nodules.
UNLABELLED The most common semiquantitative method of evaluation of pulmonary lesions using 18F-FDG PET is FDG standardized uptake value (SUV). An SUV cutoff of 2.5 or greater has been used to differentiate between benign and malignant nodules. The goal of our study was to investigate the correlation between the size of pulmonary nodules and the SUV for benign as well as for malignant nodules. ...
متن کاملSimulated FDG-PET studies for the assessment of SUV quantification methods.
AIM To study in detail the accuracy and repeatability of three commonly used methods for SUV estimation in solitary pulmonary nodules. MATERIAL AND METHODS We have designed a realistic framework based on simulated FDG-PET acquisitions from an anthropomorphic activity model that included solitary pulmonary nodules (different sizes) of well-known SUV. This framework enables us to compare the SU...
