18F-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake predicts MET expression in lung adenocarcinoma
Positron emission tomography (PET) with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) is widely used in the management of lung adenocarcinoma. Pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) plays a key role in glycolysis. We therefore investigated whether PKM2 expression affects 18F-FDG uptake in a retrospective analysis of 76 patients who underwent 18F-FDG PET/computed tomography (CT) scans for staging before surgical resectio...
متن کاملHigh 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Uptake in Adrenal Angiomyolipoma
Adrenal angiomyolipoma is an extremely rare tumor, although computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging findings of adrenal angiomyolipoma have been reported, there are no reports regarding integrated fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography and computed tomography ((18)F-FDG PET/CT) imaging. We report a case of adrenal angiomyolipoma showing a significantly high u...
متن کاملHigh 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake in cardiac tumor
BACKGROUND Cardiac tumors, especially malignant, are rare but aggressive tumors that mostly arise from the mesenchymal cells and represent a challenging diagnosis for clinicians. Recently, fluorine-18-fluorodiography positron emission tomography and computed tomography (F-FDG PET/CT) is an increasingly popular new technique with diagnosis of tumor. METHODS We report a case of a right heart tu...
متن کاملInequality in Bladder Cancer Screening Uptake: A Cross-Sectional Study in Urban Population
Background and Objective: Bladder cancer is one of the most common malignancies of the urinary system. An important source of health disparities is related to early cancer detection strategies. The aim of the present study was to determine the inequality in bladder cancer screening uptake. Materials and Methods: The current research was a cross-sectional study that was conducted among 1760 peo...
متن کاملCentral Pontine Myelinolysis and Localized Fluorodeoxyglucose Uptake Seen on 18F-FDG PET/CT
Case report describing the finding of central pontine myelinolysis (CPM) using combined fluorine-18 ( 18F)-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT). The patient was a known alcoholic who, during admission was under treatment for hyponatremia, showed a significant decline in both motor and cognitive function. Combined 18F-FDG PET/CT showed localized FDG ...
