Comparison Between Total CBF Values Measured by ASL and Phase Contrast Over Increased Range of CBF Values
Introduction Arterial spin labeling (ASL) utilizes the water in arterial blood as endogenous contrast agent to assess cerebral blood perfusion and therefore is becoming more commonly used. A perfusion image is generated by subtracting a tagged image from a control image, where the tagged image is acquired following the “labeling” of the blood upstream using an inversion pulse. The time delay be...
متن کاملA Practical Approach to Interpretation of CBF Measured by Mean of Xenon-CT in Patients with Traumatic Brain Injury
The measurement of cerebral blood flow (CBF) in traumatic brain injury (TBI) by means of Xenon-CT (XeCT) has been part of the clinical practice of several centres since 1980. Xe-CT consists of a CBF image coupled with CT which offers the possibility to associate morphologic features given by CT with functional information. Today, Xe-CT, in association with Positron Emission Tomography (PET), re...
متن کاملNormal Renal Dimensions in Iranian Adults Measured by Ultrasound
Introduction: Correct interpretation of kidney images requires the knowledge of its normal size. This study aimed to establish normal values for kidney length and parenchymal thickness and identify the potential related factors in a group of Iranian adults. Methods: Renal dimensions, including length and parenchymal thickness were measured by sonography in 103 individuals with n...
متن کاملNormal SUV Values Measured from NaF18- PET/CT Bone Scan Studies
OBJECTIVES Cancer and metabolic bone diseases can alter the SUV. SUV values have never been measured from healthy skeletons in NaF18-PET/CT bone scans. The primary aim of this study was to measure the SUV values from normal skeletons in NaF18-PET/CT bone scans. METHODS A retrospective study was carried out involving NaF18- PET/CT bone scans that were done at our institution between January 20...
متن کاملPhysiological distribution and range of normal SUVmax values of 18F-Choline PET/CT
Introduction: 18F-Choline PET-CT is an increasingly used technique in patients with prostate cancer. The main indication is to localise the disease in patients with biochemical recurrence. To accurately interpret 18F-Choline PET, knowledge of normal tracer distribution is paramount. The aim of this study was to describe the normal distribution pattern of 18F-Cho...
