Diffusely Increased Splenic Fluorodeoxyglucose Uptake in Lung Cancer Patients.
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate the association of diffuse splenic F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake on positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) with tumor maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax), presence of distant metastases, and hematological and inflammatory parameters. MATERIAL AND METHODS Initial FDG PET/CT of 15 lung cancer patients with diffuse splen...
متن کاملFactors Associated with Diffusely Increased Splenic F-18 FDG Uptake in Patients with Cholangiocarcinoma
OBJECTIVES Although diffuse splenic (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose (F-18 FDG) uptake exceeding hepatic activity, is considered abnormal, its clinical significance is rarely discussed in the literature. The aim of this study was to determine the contributing factors causing diffusely increased splenic FDG uptake in patients with cholangiocarcinoma. METHODS From January 2010 to March 2013, 140 patien...
متن کاملDiffusely increased bone scintigraphic uptake in patellofemoral pain syndrome.
OBJECTIVES Painful disorders of the patellofemoral joint are one of the most frequent complaints in orthopaedic and sports medicine. The aims of this study were to determine whether bone scintigrams of patients suffering from patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) show diffuse uptake and in what bony compartment of the knee uptake, if any, was localised. METHODS Fifty eight patients with chronic...
متن کاملIncidental gastrointestinal F-Fluorodeoxyglucose uptake associated with lung cancer
Background: F-Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (F-FDG PET/CT) is increasingly used for the initial staging and restaging of lung cancer. Incidental gastrointestinal findings are often observed on F-FDG PET/CT. The objective of this study was to assess incidental F-FDG uptake by the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) in patients with lung cancer. Methods: Two hundred...
