Comparative Evaluation of 18F-FLT and 18F-FDG for Detecting Cardiac and Extra-Cardiac Thoracic Involvement in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Sarcoidosis

EJNMMI Research, 2017
Background 18F-FDG PET has been used in sarcoidosis for diagnosis and determination of the extent of the disease. However, assessing inflammatory lesions in cardiac sarcoidosis using 18F-FDG can be challenging because it accumulates physiologically in ...

18F-FSPG PET imaging for the evaluation of indeterminate pulmonary nodules

PLoS ONE, 2022
Background 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/CT is recommended for evaluation of intermediate-risk indeterminate pulmonary nodules (IPNs). While highly sensitive, the specificity of FDG remains suboptimal for differentiating malignant from benign nodules,

Prognostic value of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography in patients with small hepatocellular carcinoma treated by radiofrequency ablation

Cancer Imaging, 2020
Background 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) uptake in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is significantly associated with early recurrence and survival after curative surgical resection.

Effect of illumination level [18F]FDG-PET brain uptake in free moving mice.

PLoS ONE, 2021
In both clinical and preclinical scenarios, 2-deoxy-2[18F]fluoro-D-glucose ([18F]FDG) is the radiotracer most widely used to study brain glucose metabolism with positron emission tomography (PET).

Comparison of diagnostic sensitivity of [18F]fluoroestradiol and [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography for breast cancer recurrence in patients with a history of estrogen receptor-positive primary breast cancer

EJNMMI Research, 2020
Background To compare the diagnostic sensitivity of [18F]fluoroestradiol ([18F]FES) and [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose ([18F]FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for breast cancer recurrence in patients with estrogen receptor (ER ...

Evaluation of the early-phase [18F]AV45 PET as an optimal surrogate of [18F]FDG PET in ageing and Alzheimer’s clinical syndrome

NeuroImage: Clinical, 2021
Dual-phase [18F]AV45 positron emission tomography (PET) is highly promising in the assessment of neurodegenerative diseases, allowing to obtain information on both neurodegeneration (early-phase; eAV45) and amyloid deposition (late-phase; lAV45) which ...
