Objective(s): We performed a phase IIa clinical trial of trans-1-amino-3-18Ffluoro-cyclobutane carboxylic acid (anti-18F-FACBC), a synthetic amino acid analog for PET, in patients with metastatic prostate cancer. Methods: The study subjects consisted of 10 untreated prostate cancer patients having lymph node and/or bone metastasis. Five patients underwent whole-body PET 5 and 30 min after intra...
متن کاملRecent Advances in PET-MR Hybrid contrast agent
Introduction: All of the Imaging modalities have advantages and disadvantages alone. So if we want to have the best and perfect image, combining these modalities produces something we desired. PET-MR images consist of morphologic and metabolic data. MRI and PET provide high spatial and contrast resolution and high sensitivity and molecular information respectively. Hybrid PET-...
متن کاملDetection of prostate cancer by an FDG-PET cancer screening program: results from a Japanese nationwide survey
Objective(s): The aim of this study was to analyze detection rates and effectiveness of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) cancer screening program for prostate cancer in Japan, which is defined as a cancer-screening program for subjects without known cancer. It contains FDG-PET aimed at detection of cancer at an early stage with or without additional screening tests ...
متن کاملInguino-scrotal bladder hernia: an unexpected finding on 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT
Bladder herniation is an uncommon condition mimicking suspicious metastasis on PET/CT imaging. We report a 67 y/o man with prostate cancer referred for recurrence evaluation with 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT. The scan showed an asymmetric site of intense tracer accumulation in the left inguino-scrotal region with the same SUVmax to the pelvic bladder. Reviewing cross sectional CT i...
