Metabolic liver function measured in vivo by dynamic 18F-FDGal PET/CT without arterial blood sampling

BACKGROUND Metabolic liver function can be measured by dynamic PET/CT with the radio-labelled galactose-analogue 2-[(18)F]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-galactose ((18)F-FDGal) in terms of hepatic systemic clearance of (18)F-FDGal (K, ml blood/ml liver tissue/min). The method requires arterial blood sampling from a radial artery (arterial input function), and the aim of this study was to develop a method for...

Arterial input function measurement without blood sampling using a beta-microprobe in rats.

UNLABELLED The evaluation of every new radiotracer involves pharmacokinetic studies on small animals to determine its biodistribution and local kinetics. To extract relevant biochemical information, time-activity curves for the regions of interest are mathematically modeled on the basis of compartmental models that require knowledge of the time course of the tracer concentration in plasma. Such...

Evaluation of limited blood sampling population input approaches for kinetic quantification of [18F]fluorothymidine PET data

BACKGROUND Quantification of kinetic parameters of positron emission tomography (PET) imaging agents normally requires collecting arterial blood samples which is inconvenient for patients and difficult to implement in routine clinical practice. The aim of this study was to investigate whether a population-based input function (POP-IF) reliant on only a few individual discrete samples allows acc...

FDG-PET Quantification of Lung Inflammation with Image-Derived Blood Input Function in Mice

Dynamic FDG-PET imaging was used to study inflammation in lungs of mice following administration of a virulent strain of Klebsiella (K.) pneumoniae. Net whole-lung FDG influx constant (K(i)) was determined in a compartment model using an image-derived blood input function. Methods. K. pneumoniae (~3 x 10(5) CFU) was intratracheally administered to six mice with 6 other mice serving as controls....
