18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography comparison of gastric lymphoma and gastric carcinoma
AIM To compare (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography ((18)F-FDG PET/CT) features in gastric lymphoma and gastric carcinoma. METHODS Patients with newly diagnosed gastric lymphoma or gastric carcinoma who underwent (18)F-FDG PET/CT prior to treatment were included in this study. We reviewed and analyzed the PET/CT features of gastric wall lesions, including ...
متن کاملEvaluation of recurrence in gastric carcinoma: Comparison of contrast-enhanced computed tomography and positron emission tomography/computed tomography
AIM To compare the value of contrast-enhanced abdominal computed tomography (CT) and fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for detecting gastric carcinoma recurrence. METHODS We retrospectively examined data from 2475 patients who underwent both contrast-enhanced abdominal CT and FDG PET/CT for the surveillance of gastric carcinoma curative resecti...
متن کاملThe Role of 18F-FDG-Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography in Staging Primary Breast Cancer
Despite Medicare approving the use of positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in staging primary breast cancer, little evidence is available to support the use of (18)F-FDG-PET/CT for the detection of distant metastases in the initial staging of breast cancer. In this review of the literature listed in MEDLINE, we examine whether (18)F-FDG-PET/CT may play a role in the initial...
متن کاملAn Incidental Solitary Plasmacytoma of Bone Mimicking Neuroendocrine Tumor Metastasis on 68Ga-DOTATATE Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography
A 54-year-old woman with suspicion of neuroendocrine tumor (NET) was referred for 68Ga-DOTATATE positron emission tomography/computed tomography (CT) imaging due to clinical findings. A well-defined osteolytic lesion on the corpus of the third lumbar vertebra was evident on CT images with mild uptake of 68Ga-DOTATATE, which led to suspicion of NET metastasis. Histopathologic examination reveale...
متن کاملPulmonary arteriovenous malformation mimicking a pulmonary tumour on 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron-emission tomography/computed tomography
Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations are rare congenital abnormal connections between the pulmonary arteries and veins. The patients are usually asymptomatic [1]. Although their aetiology is unclear, it is presumed that genetic abnormalities constitute a predisposition [1, 2]. An arteriovenous malformation might cause serious complications if it remains undiagnosed and untreated [3]. We report...
