A residual mass after treatment of lymphoma is a clinical challenge, because it may represent vital tumor as well as tissue fibrosis. Metabolic imaging by 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) offers the advantage of functional tissue characterization that is largely independent of morphologic criteria. We compared 18F-FDG PET to computed tomography (CT) in the pos...
TO THE EDITOR: We read with interest the article by Biehl et al. illustrating the current uncertainty surrounding the use of 18F-FDG PET to delineate the gross tumor volume (GTV) of non– small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (1). The importance of this delineation is emphasized by the finding of Bradley et al. that GTV is of critical prognostic importance in NSCLC (2). CT is the current standard for N...
BACKGROUND Brown adipose tissue [BAT] metabolism in vivo is vital for the development of novel strategies in combating obesity and diabetes. Currently, BAT is activated at low temperatures and measured using 2-deoxy-2-18F-fluoro-D-glucose [18F-FDG] positron-emission tomography [PET]. We report the use of β3-adrenergic receptor-mediated activation of BAT at ambient temperatures using (R, R)-5-[2...
objective(s): use of a positron emission tomography (pet)/single-photonemission computed tomography (spect) system facilitates the simultaneousacquisition of images with fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18f-fdg) andtechnetium (99mtc)-tetrofosmin. however, 18f has a short half-life, and 511kev compton-scattered photons are detected in the 99mtc energy window.therefore, in this study, we aimed to ...
background: fluoride-18 is the most widely used radioisotope for positron emission tomography (pet). [18f] 2-flouro- 2-deoxy d-glucose (fdg) has become a standard tool in the area of clinical research. the oxygen-18 enriched water is the most widely used target for the production of fluoride-18. the use of the nuclear reaction 18o (p,n)18f has been found as the most effective method for the pro...
Early diagnosis and staging of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is essential for therapeutic strategy decision. Positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) with fluordeoxyglucose (FDG), a glucose analogue, labeled with fluor-18 (18F-FDG) has been used to evaluate staging, therapy response and prognosis in NHL patients. However, in some cases, 18F-FDG has shown false-positive uptake due ...
Background: The role of fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG-PET/CT) in the surgical approach solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN) is still debated, as increased metabolic avidity lesion was not a sure sign malignancy. purpose this study to evaluate effectiveness 18F-FDG-PET/CT characterization SPN based on analysis most recent data literature.
Early diagnosis of low grade glioma has been a challenge to clinicians. Positron Emission Tomography (PET) using 18F-FDG as a radio-tracer has limited utility in this area because of the high background in normal brain tissue. Other radiotracers such as 18F-Fluorocholine (18F-FCH) could provide better contrast between tumor and normal brain tissue but with high incidence of false positives. In ...
We present a case demonstrating the diagnostic work-up and follow-up of a patient with Chikungunya infection. An 18F-FDG PET/CT performed four weeks after debut of symptoms revealed pathological 18F-FDG uptake in enlarged lymph nodes on both side of the diaphragm, and inflammation of both shoulder and hip joints. Lymphoma and infection were the main differential diagnoses. Follow-up 18F-FDG PET...
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 ...
