Correlation of BRAFV600E Mutation and Glucose Metabolism in Thyroid Cancer Patients: An ¹⁸F-FDG PET Study.
UNLABELLED There is significant interest in a better understanding of the genetic underpinnings of the increased glucose metabolic rates of cancer cells. Thyroid cancer demonstrates a broad variability of (18)F-FDG uptake as well as several well-characterized oncogenic mutations. In this study, we evaluated the differences in glucose metabolism of the BRAF(V600E) mutation versus BRAF wild-type ...
متن کاملBoth F-18 FDG-avidity and Malignant Shape of Cervical Lymph Nodes on PET/CT after Total Thyroidectomy Predict Resistance to High-dose I-131 Therapy in Patients with Papillary Thyroid Cancer
Objective: Resistance of metastatic lymph nodes (LNs) to high dose I-131 therapy is associated with high morbidity in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer. We evaluated the role of F-18 FDG PET/CT in the prediction of resistance to high dose I-131 therapy in patients with papillary thyroid cancer. Methods: The subjects were 307 patients who underwent total or near total thyroidectomy fol...
متن کامل[Interpretation of thyroid incidentalomas in (18)F-FDG PET/CT studies].
OBJECTIVE Thyroid findings or incidentalomas in (18)F-FDG PET/CT studies are relatively frequent, being its clinical significance subject of controversy. The aim of this study was to show our experience in the detection of thyroid incidentalomas by PET/CT studies as well as its follow up. MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective and descriptive review was conducted on patients who had thyroid inc...
متن کاملDose-Finding Quantitative 18F-FDG PET Imaging Study with the Oral Pan-AKT Inhibitor GSK2141795 in Patients with Gynecologic Malignancies.
UNLABELLED AKT (a serine/threonine-specific protein kinase) regulates many cellular processes contributing to cytotoxic drug resistance. This study's primary objective examined the relationship between GSK2141795, an oral, pan-AKT inhibitor, and (18)F-FDG PET markers of glucose metabolism in tumor tissue to determine whether (18)F-FDG PET could be used to guide personalized dosing of GSK2141795...
متن کاملAdrenocortical Oncocytic Carcinoma and Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma Incidentally Detected in an Asymptomatic Patient by F-18 FDG PET/CT
F-18 FDG is the most widely used tracer in molecular imaging and it is applied for many purposes mainly in malignant diseases. Incidental finding are common in FDG-PET/CT imaging and includes benign and malignant lesions. Among the rare tumors , adrenal oncocytomas are uncommon findings and incidental findings of thyroid malignancies are not rare. Oncocytoma is a rare adrenocortical tumor and m...
