FDG PET/CT in Oncology
The escalating costs of conventional diagnostic technology in oncology have yet to obviate futile surgery intervention and the spiralling treatment cost. The evolution in engineering technology which looks at the correlation of the anatomy and the function of tumours i.e. Positron Emission Tomography-Computed Tomography (PET-CT) have impacted on the improved diagnostic accuracy and treatment in...
متن کاملNoise reduction in oncology FDG PET images by iterative reconstruction: a quantitative assessment.
UNLABELLED Tumor detection depends on the contrast between tumor activity and background activity and on the image noise in these 2 regions. The lower the image noise, the easier the tumor detection. Tumor activity contrast is determined by physiology. Noise, however, is affected by many factors, including the choice of reconstruction algorithm. Previous simulation and phantom measurements indi...
متن کاملFDG PET/CT imaging in pediatric oncology
Hybr id imag ing w i th F -FDG PET/CT has revolutionized the practice of imaging in oncology patients. The clinical utility of FDG PET/CT in pediatric oncology is most well-established in the evaluation of malignant lymphomas, which comprise about 15% of childhood cancers in Western populations. In Hong Kong, the incidence is lower with these tumors comprising about 8.5% of cancers in children,...
متن کاملApplication of FDG-PET/CT in Radiation Oncology
Positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT), which combines the advantages of high sensitivity and specificity of PET and high resolution of CT, is a unique tool for cancer management. PET/CT has been widely used in cancer diagnosis and treatment. The article reviews the recent applications of PET/CT in radiation oncology, with a focus on (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-PET/CT, a...
