F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography
Objective—Adiponectin and resistin are adipokines that are linked to obesity, inflammation, and atherosclerosis. F-Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography is a promising imaging technique that can be used to evaluate vascular inflammation. Methods and Results—We measured adiponectin and resistin levels, as well as traditional cardiovascular risk factors, in 60 obese subjects and 6...
متن کاملDiagnosis of prostatitis by 18-F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography
A 74-year-old man, who underwent renal transplantation in April 2007 for end-stage renal failure caused by chronic glomerulonephritis, was admitted in August 2008 for fever (38.5◦C) without orientation symptoms. He had history of essential hypertension, diabetes and ischaemic cardiopathy. The patient had presented two episodes of isolated fever in June 2007, with negative bacteriology, which re...
متن کاملUncommon reason for high fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography uptake.
A 32-year-old woman presented with a local recurrence of breast cancer. She had first been diagnosed in 2006 with clinical stage II (T4.5 cm N0 M0), triple-negative breast cancer of the left breast; she received neoadjuvant chemotherapy and breast-conserving surgery followed by adjuvant chemotherapy and breast irradiation. She remained disease-free until May 2009, when a 0.9-mm lump appeared in...
متن کاملrole of ۱۸f-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography in the evaluation of cytologically indeterminate thyroid nodules
conclusion the fdg pet/ct showed a high sensitivity and a high negative predictive value for identifying malignancies in thyroid nodules with indeterminate fnab results. therefore, the fdg pet/ct may be a helpful tool in the clinical management of these nodules. when an fdg positive lesion is detected, further examination is recommended. background thyroid nodules with indeterminate fine-needle...
متن کاملPerformance of Positron Emission Tomography and Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography Using Fluorine-18-Fluorodeoxyglucose for the Diagnosis, Staging, and Recurrence Assessment of Bone Sarcoma
To investigate the performance of fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) and PET/ computed tomography (CT) in the diagnosis, staging, restaging, and recurrence surveillance of bone sarcoma by systematically reviewing and meta-analyzing the published literature. To retrieve eligible studies, we searched the MEDLINE, Embase, and the Cochrane Central library data...
