Prediction of glioma recurrence using dynamic ¹⁸F-fluoroethyltyrosine PET.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Inter- and intratumor heterogeneity and the variable course of disease in patients with glioma motivate the investigation of new prognostic factors to optimize individual treatment. Here we explore the usefulness of standard static and more sophisticated dynamic (18)F-fluoroethyltyrosine-PET imaging for the assessment of patient prognosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-f...
متن کاملFluoroethyltyrosine - positron emission tomography - guided radiotherapy for high - grade glioma
Background: To compare morphological gross tumor volumes (GTVs), defined as preand postoperative gadolinium enhancement on T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging to biological tumor volumes (BTVs), defined by the uptake of 18F fluoroethyltyrosine (FET) for the radiotherapy planning of high-grade glioma, using a dedicated positron emission tomography (PET)-CT scanner equipped with three triangul...
متن کاملDetection of chordoma recurrence by F-18 FDG-PET/CT
Background: Despite the relative success of surgical resection followed by proton, proton/photon, or conventional radiotherapy in terms of recurrence-free survival, chordomas are still associated with a high rate of recurrence. To our knowledge there are only very few reported cases of this rare tumor detected by F-18 FDG-PET. Materials and Methods: In this case we show the significanc...
متن کاملThe performance of 11C-Methionine PET in the differential diagnosis of glioma recurrence
Despite the advancement of neuroimaging techniques, it often remains a diagnostic challenge to distinguish recurrent glioma from lesions representing treatment effect. Preliminary reports suggest that 11C-methionine Positron emission tomography (PET) can assist in diagnosing true glioma recurrence. We present here a meta-analysis to assess the accuracy of 11C-methionine PET in identifying recur...
متن کاملCancer Recurrence Prediction Using Machine Learning
Cancer is one of the deadliest diseases in the world and is responsible for around 13% of all deaths worldwide. Cancer incidence rate is growing at an alarming rate in the world. Despite the fact that cancer is preventable and curable in early stages, the vast majority of patients are diagnosed with cancer very late. Furthermore, cancer commonly comes back after years of treatment. Therefore, i...
