F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography
Objective—Adiponectin and resistin are adipokines that are linked to obesity, inflammation, and atherosclerosis. F-Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography is a promising imaging technique that can be used to evaluate vascular inflammation. Methods and Results—We measured adiponectin and resistin levels, as well as traditional cardiovascular risk factors, in 60 obese subjects and 6...
متن کاملRole of Positron Emission Tomography with Fluorodeoxyglucose in Prostate Cancer
Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography (FDG PET/CT) has undergone explosive growth in clinical applications and has emerged as one of the most important imaging modalities in staging, restaging, detecting recurrence and/or metastasis, and monitoring therapeutic response, in most kinds of malignant diseases. However, to date, available experience with FDG PET/CT is l...
متن کاملRole of (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography imaging in the management of primary cutaneous lymphomas.
Primary cutaneous lymphomas (PCLs) include both cutaneous T-cell and B-cell lymphomas and comprise the second most common type of extra-nodal non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. The treatment and prognosis of PCLs typically depend on the extent of disease. In evaluating extent of disease in oncological processes, computed tomography (CT) provides a purely anatomical assessment of disease. In comparison, [...
متن کاملrole of ۱۸f-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography in the evaluation of cytologically indeterminate thyroid nodules
conclusion the fdg pet/ct showed a high sensitivity and a high negative predictive value for identifying malignancies in thyroid nodules with indeterminate fnab results. therefore, the fdg pet/ct may be a helpful tool in the clinical management of these nodules. when an fdg positive lesion is detected, further examination is recommended. background thyroid nodules with indeterminate fine-needle...
متن کاملDiagnostic Accuracy of Positron Emission Mammography with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose in Breast Cancer Tumor of Less than 20 mm in Size
Objective(s): To investigate the diagnostic accuracy of positron emission mammography (PEM) and positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for small breast tumors of less than 20 mm in size.Methods: The study was conducted on a total of 100 subjects (i.e., 50 patients with pathologically proven breast cancer and 50 normal cases of medical screening). The total number of tumors wa...
