SUV: from silly useless value to smart uptake value.
One of the early promises of PET was that it would be quantitative (1), as opposed to imaging modalities such as x-ray CT, MRI, or SPECT, in which quantification is more of a challenge than in PET. By quantitative is meant that a raw PET signal can be transferred into absolute activity concentrations of the radiopharmaceutical in all tissues in units of, for example, kBq/cm3. In this sense, PET...
متن کاملSUVref: reducing reconstruction-dependent variation in PET SUV
BACKGROUND We propose a new methodology, reference Standardised Uptake Value (SUVref), for reducing the quantitative variation resulting from differences in reconstruction protocol. Such variation that is not directly addressed by the use of SUV or the recently proposed PERCIST can impede comparability between positron emission tomography (PET)/CT scans. METHODS SUVref applies a reconstructio...
متن کاملPulmonary Sequestration with Renal Aplasia and Elevated SUV Level in PET/CT
Extralobar sequestration with other bronchopulmonary malformations is commonly seen; however, the association of extralobar sequestration with renal aplasia is very rare. A 75-year-old female patient was admitted with back pain. Ultrasonography revealed aplasia of the left kidney and tomography showed 6 × 4.5 cm sized tumor in the left hemithorax at the posterobasal area. The lesion has focally...
متن کاملFDG-PET staging and importance of lymph node SUV in head and neck cancer
OBJECTIVES The role of positron emission tomography (PET) with fluoro-deoxy-glucose (FDG) in the staging of head and neck cancer (HNC) is unclear. The NCCN guidelines do not recommend FDG-PET as a part of standard workup. The purpose of this report is to examine the role of FDG-PET imaging in altering management and providing prognostic information for HNC. METHODS Retrospective review of HNC...
متن کاملPerformance Investigation of an Exhaust Thermoelectric Generator for Military SUV Application
To analyze the thermoelectric power generation for sports utility vehicle (SUV) application, a novel thermoelectric generator (TEG) based on low-temperature Bi2Te3 thermoelectric modules (TEMs) and a chaos-shaped brass heat exchanger is constructed. The temperature distribution of the TEG is analyzed based on an experimental setup, and the temperature uniformity optimization method is performed...
