Modern Quantitative Techniques for PET/CT/MR Hybrid Imaging
The relentless progress that is being made in tomographic imaging modalities is inexorably expanding the application of positron emission tomography (PET) in the clinical field. Some of the most noteworthy advances involve innovations in quantitative techniques for hybrid imaging modalities such as PET/Computed Tomography (CT) and PET/Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), which have greatly improve...
متن کاملPediatric PET/CT imaging: tips and techniques.
This article was written to give health-care providers working in the field of nuclear medicine some background information on pediatric PET/CT. Specifically, it provides information regarding patient preparation and acquisition techniques necessary to obtain high-quality pediatric PET/CT images. It is targeted primarily at nuclear medicine technologists and CT technologists but may be benefici...

conclusions pet/ct can provide diagnosis and more accurate staging, location of tumor with its capability in providing the anatomical and physiological information synchronizes. therefore pet/ct plays an important role in oncology. objectives in this paper, we evaluate application of pet/ct for improve oncologic imaging. methods the papers were searched in pubmed and scopus databases with the r...
متن کاملQuantitative and Qualitative Assessment of Yttrium-90 PET/CT Imaging
Yttrium-90 is known to have a low positron emission decay of 32 ppm that may allow for personalized dosimetry of liver cancer therapy with (90)Y labeled microspheres. The aim of this work was to image and quantify (90)Y so that accurate predictions of the absorbed dose can be made. The measurements were performed within the QUEST study (University of Sydney, and Sirtex Medical, Australia). A NE...
متن کاملQuantitative myocardial blood flow imaging using PET/CT
Several different tracers have been used for visualizing and quantifying MBF [1-4, 13, 16-18], of which N-ammonia, Rb and O-water are the most widely used (Table 1). Their short half-lives of only several minutes enable MBF to be studied under normal resting and pharmacologically induced stress conditions in the same scanning session (Figures 1-4) in contrast to, for example, F–labeled tracers ...
