Introduction. PET imaging is a useful clinical tool for studying tumor progression and treatment effects. Conventional (18)F-FDG-PET imaging is of limited usefulness for imaging Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) due to high levels of glucose uptake by normal brain and the resultant signal-to-noise intensity. (18)F-Fluorothymidine (FLT) in contrast has shown promise for imaging GBM, as thymidine is ...
Recent development in molecular imaging enables measurement of fibrillar amyloid plaque in Alzheimer (AD) brain using positron emission tomography (PET). Three tracers (florbetapir, flutemetamol, florbetaben) have been approved by FDA and EMA for use in clinical assessment of memory impairment to exclude AD. The use of amyloid PET imaging is considered to be appropriate in patients with persist...
an inflammatory pseudotumor (ipt) is a rare benign lesion, characterized by nonneoplastic proliferation of inflammatory cells and presence of intermingling collagen fibers. ipt commonly occurs in the lungs and orbita, while an intraspinal ipt is extremely rare. ipt can mimic both clinically and radiologically malignant processes, and making a definitive preoperative diagnosis is often difficult...
We report an unusual case of a young male with cerebellar hemangioblastoma treated previously for medullary carcinoma of thyroid, whose PET/CT scans revealed a constellation of findings that suggested the rare Von Hippel Lindau syndrome. The diagnosis was clinched by confirming the findings on whole body contrast enhanced computed tomography (CECT) and contrast enha...
UNLABELLED We previously demonstrated the ability to detect metastatic prostate cancer using N-[N-[(S)-1,3-dicarboxypropyl]carbamoyl]-4-(18)F-fluorobenzyl-L-cysteine ((18)F-DCFBC), a low-molecular-weight radiotracer that targets the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA). PSMA has been shown to be associated with higher Gleason grade and more aggressive disease. An imaging biomarker able to ...
Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging is based on detecting two time-coincident high-energy photons from the emission of a positron-emitting radioisotope. The physics of the emission, and the detection of the coincident photons, give PET imaging unique capabilities for both very high sensitivity and accurate estimation of the in vivo concentration of the radiotracer. PET imaging has been w...
introduction:brain imaging with f-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18f-fdg) positron emission tomography or tc-99m hexamethylpropyleneamine oxime (99mtc-hmpao) spect is widely used for the evaluation of alzheimer's dementia (ad); we aim to assess superiority of one method over the other. methods: twenty four patients with clinical diagnosis of alzheimer disease underwent 18f-fdg pet and 99mtc-...
UNLABELLED Under Medicare's Coverage with Evidence Development policy, PET using (18)F-sodium fluoride (NaF PET) to identify osseous metastasis became a covered service if prospective registry data were collected. The National Oncologic PET Registry (NOPR) developed a NaF PET registry built on the foundation of its prior registry for PET with (18)F-FDG. Men with prostate cancer represented 72% ...
Anatomic imaging utilizing both CT (computed tomography) and MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) limits the assessment of cancer metastases in lymph nodes and distant organs while functional imaging like PET (positron emission tomography) scan has its limitation in spatial resolution capacity. Hybrid imaging utilizing PET-CT and PET-MRI are novel imaging modalities that are changing the current la...
Atherosclerosis-related cardiovascular events are the leading causes of death in the industrialized world. Atherosclerosis develops insidiously and the initial manifestation is usually sudden cardiac death, stroke, or myocardial infarction. Molecular imaging is a valuable tool to identify the disease at an early stage before fatal manifestations occur. Among the various molecular imaging techni...
