18F-FDG-labeled red blood cell PET for blood-pool imaging: preclinical evaluation in rats
BACKGROUND Red blood cells (RBCs) labeled with single-photon emitters have been clinically used for blood-pool imaging. Although some PET tracers have been introduced for blood-pool imaging, they have not yet been widely used. The present study investigated the feasibility of labeling RBCs with 18F-2-deoxy-2-fluoro-D-glucose (18F-FDG) for blood-pool imaging with PET. RBCs isolated from venous b...
متن کاملRelation between nodule size and 18F-FDG-PET SUV for malignant and benign pulmonary nodules.
UNLABELLED The most common semiquantitative method of evaluation of pulmonary lesions using 18F-FDG PET is FDG standardized uptake value (SUV). An SUV cutoff of 2.5 or greater has been used to differentiate between benign and malignant nodules. The goal of our study was to investigate the correlation between the size of pulmonary nodules and the SUV for benign as well as for malignant nodules. ...
متن کامل18F-FDG PET for mediastinal staging of lung cancer: which SUV threshold makes sense?
UNLABELLED (18)F-FDG PET is the most accurate noninvasive modality for staging mediastinal lymph nodes in lung cancer. Besides using visual image interpretation, some institutions use standardized uptake value (SUV) measurements in lymph nodes. Mostly, an SUV of 2.5 is used as the cutoff, but this choice was never deduced from respective studies. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses...
متن کاملScar sarcoidosis on 18F-FDG PET/CT
18F-labeled fluoro-2-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography/ computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) is an important imaging modality in the clinical workup of patients with chronic inflammatory disorders which present quite often with a fever of unknown origin. Sarcoidosis is a multisystem chronic inflammatory disorder with a wide clinical spectrum that can involve different organs. The diagno...
متن کامل18F-FDG PET/CT in pachygyria during evaluation for seizure disorder
Pachygyria or incomplete lissencephaly is a developmental condition due to abnormal migration of neurons. The association of seizures in this condition warrants investigation like electroencephalogram (EEG) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). 18F-flurodeoxyglucose positron emission topography computed topography (18F-FDG PET/CT) has a potential role in commenting of wide...
