Myocardial viability assessment in 18FDG PET/CT study (18FDG PET myocardial viability assessment).
Accurate identification of viable myocardium is crucial in patient qualification for medical or surgical treatment. Only persons with confirmed cardiac viability will benefit from revascularization procedures. It is also well known, that the amount of viable myocardium assessed preoperatively is the best indicator of long term cardiac event free survival after cardiac intervention.There are sev...
متن کامل18FDG PET/CT in pulmonary carcinosarcoma and brain metastasis
Carcinosarcoma is a rare type of cancer that is composed of a mixture of sarcomatous and carcinomatous elements. Pulmonary carcinosarcoma has a 25% five-year survival rate with a prognosis poorer than other non-small cell lung carcinomas. Herein, we report a case of pulmonary carcinosarcoma and its 18F-FDG PET/CT findings. A 61-year-old male patient presented with brain symptoms, including hea...
متن کامل18FDG PET and ultrasound echolucency in carotid artery plaques.
OBJECTIVES The objective was to evaluate inflammation in echolucent carotid artery plaques. BACKGROUND Ultrasound echolucency of carotid artery plaques has been proven to differentiate patients at high risk of stroke. On the other hand, positron emission tomography (PET) of plaques with the use of [(18)F]-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) identifies highly inflamed plaques, and the combination of mole...
متن کامل18FDG PET in oncology: the best and the worst (Review).
The clinical added-value of 18F-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose positron emission tomography (18FDG PET) in the management of oncology patients is increasingly documented. In the present review, we discuss both the benefits and the limitations of 18FDG PET in different cancers. Considering the literature data and our own experience, we also indicate the best clinical approach to optimize the use of me...
متن کاملNeuroimaging in Animal Seizure Models with 18FDG-PET
Small animal neuroimaging has become increasingly available to researchers, expanding the breadth of questions studied with these methods. Applying these noninvasive techniques to the open questions underlying epileptogenesis is no exception. A major advantage of small animal neuroimaging is its translational appeal. Studies can be well controlled and manipulated, examining the living brain in ...
