18F-FDG PET is emerging as a useful tool in the staging and restaging of many malignant neoplasms, such as lymphoma, lung cancer, colorectal cancer, head and neck cancer, breast cancer, and melanoma. To accurately interpret 18F-FDG findings one must be familiar with the normal physiologic distribution of the tracer, frequently encountered physiologic variants, and benign pathologic causes of 18...
A 58 year old female was referred for FDG-PET/CT for restaging of endometrial adenocarcinoma. For evaluation of treatment, no metastases were detected on FDG-PET/CT which was performed 18 months later after the surgery. During follow-up, FDG-PET/CT was performed 6 months later than the previous FDG-PET/CT for restaging. A lesion with increased metabolic activity (SUV max: 10.21) was detected at...
Unlike for most other malignancies, application of FDG PET/CT is limited for renal cell carcinoma (RCC), mainly due to physiological excretion of 18F-fluoro-2-deoxy-2-d-glucose (FDG) from the kidneys, which decreases contrast between renal lesions and normal tissue, and may obscure or mask the lesions of the kidneys. Published clinical observations were discordant regarding the role of FDG PET/...
Metastatic infection is an important complication of Staphylococcus aureus bacteremia (SAB). Early diagnosis of metastatic infection is crucial, because specific treatment is required. However, metastatic infection can be asymptomatic and difficult to detect. In this study, we investigated the role of 18F-FDG PET/CT in patients with SAB for detection of metastatic infection and its consequences...
UNLABELLED The purpose of this study was to evaluate the ability of (18)F-FDG PET to identify aortitis and to localize and follow disease activity in patients with Takayasu arteritis. The value of using (18)F-FDG PET coregistered with enhanced CT in determining vascular lesion sites and inflammatory activity was assessed. METHODS Takayasu arteritis was diagnosed according to the predefined cr...
Background: Management of infection is a major clinical problem. Staphylococcus aureus is a Gram-positive bacterium which colonises approximately one third of the adult human population. Staphylococcal infections can be life-threatening and are frequently complicated by multi-antibiotic resistant strains including methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA). Fluorodeoxyglucose ([F]FDG) imaging has b...
PURPOSE Increased tumor metabolism and hypoxia are related to poor prognosis in solid tumors, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). PET imaging is a noninvasive technique that is frequently used to visualize and quantify tumor metabolism and hypoxia. The aim of this study was to perform an extensive comparison of tumor metabolism using 2[(18)F]fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose (FDG)-PET and hypo...
Objective: To evaluate the clinical impact of (18) F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron-emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) scanning, compared with conventional staging with contrast-enhanced CT imaging (CECT). Patients and methods: The FDG-PET/CT results of 96 consecutive patients with bladder cancer were analysed. Patients included in this study underwent standard CECT imaging of ...
Dynamic positron emission tomography (PET), combined with constant infusion of 2-deoxy-2-[(18)F]fluoro-d-glucose (FDG), enables real-time monitoring of transient metabolic changes in vivo, which can serve to understand the underlying physiology. Here we investigated characteristic changes in the tumour FDG-uptake profiles in relation to acute localized inflammatory responses induced by photodyn...
PURPOSE In FDG PET/CT, standardized uptake value (SUV) is used to measure metabolic activity but detects un-phosphorylated FDG as well as phosphorylated FDG (FDG6P). Our aim was to determine the proportions of intrahepatic and intrasplenic FDG that are phosphorylated after FDG injection and compare them with SUVs. METHODS Sixty patients undergoing whole-body PET/CT 60 min post-injection of FD...
