FDG PET/CT: EANM procedure guidelines for tumour imaging: version 2.0.
(2015-02)
The purpose of these guidelines is to assist physicians in recommending, performing, interpreting and reporting the results of FDG PET/CT for oncological imaging of adult patients. PET is a quantitative imaging technique ...
18F-FDG PET/CT in Detecting Metastatic Infection in Children.
(2016-04)
Purpose of the report Metastatic infection is a severe complication of bacteremia with high morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic value of 18F-FDG PET combined with CT (FDG PET/CT) ...
Tumor Delineation and Quantitative Assessment of Glucose Metabolic Rate within Histologic Subtypes of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer by Using Dynamic <sup>18</sup>F Fluorodeoxyglucose PET.
(2017-05)
Purpose To assess whether dynamic fluorine 18 ( 18 F) fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) has added value over static 18 F-FDG PET for tumor delineation in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) radiation ...
The potential of <sup>223</sup>Ra and <sup>18</sup>F-fluoride imaging to predict bone lesion response to treatment with <sup>223</sup>Ra-dichloride in castration-resistant prostate cancer.
(2017-10)
Purpose The aims of this study were to calculate bone lesion absorbed doses resulting from a weight-based administration of 223 Ra-dichloride, to assess the relationship between those doses and corresponding 18 F-fluoride ...
Opportunities for research in molecular radiotherapy.
(2017-03)
Cancer has been treated with radiopharmaceuticals for 80 years. A recent National Cancer Research Institute report from the Clinical and Translational Radiotherapy Research Working Group reviews the current status of ...
Tumor to cervical spinal cord standardized uptake ratio (SUR) improves the reproducibility of <sup>18</sup>F-FDG-PET based tumor segmentation in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma in a multicenter setting.
(2019-01)
Background In quantitative FDG-PET data analysis, normalization of the standardized uptake value (SUV) with an internal image-derived standard improves its reproducibility. In this study, the cervical spinal cord is proposed ...
The diagnostic value of 18F-FDG-PET/CT and MRI in suspected vertebral osteomyelitis - a prospective study.
(2018-05)
PURPOSE:The aim of this study was to determine the diagnostic value of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography and computed tomography (PET/CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in diagnosing vertebral ...
Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography with <sup>89</sup>Zr-girentuximab Can Aid in Diagnostic Dilemmas of Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma Suspicion.
(2018-09)
Based on the high expression of carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) in 95% of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), the anti-CAIX monoclonal antibody girentuximab can be used for the detection of ccRCC. This clinical study ...
Cost-effectiveness of zoledronic acid and strontium-89 as bone protecting treatments in addition to chemotherapy in patients with metastatic castrate-refractory prostate cancer: results from the TRAPEZE trial (ISRCTN 12808747).
(2017-04)
Objective To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of adding zoledronic acid or strontium-89 to standard docetaxel chemotherapy for patients with castrate-refractory prostate cancer (CRPC).Patients and methods Data on resource ...
The Impact of Optimal Respiratory Gating and Image Noise on Evaluation of Intratumor Heterogeneity on 18F-FDG PET Imaging of Lung Cancer.
(2016-11)
Accurate measurement of intratumor heterogeneity using parameters of texture on PET images is essential for precise characterization of cancer lesions. In this study, we investigated the influence of respiratory motion and ...
