Management of Incidental Pituitary Findings on CT, MRI, and 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose PET: A White Paper of the ACR Incidental Findings Committee.

Journal of the American College of Radiology, 2018
The ACR Incidental Findings Committee presents recommendations for managing pituitary findings that are incidentally detected on CT, MRI and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose PET. The Pituitary Subcommittee, which included radiologists practicing neuroradiology and

Evolving Roles of Fluorodeoxyglucose and Sodium Fluoride in Assessment of Multiple Myeloma Patients: Introducing a Novel Method of PET Quantification to Overcome Shortcomings of the Existing Approaches.

PET Clinics, 2019
PET with fluorodeoxyglucose and sodium fluoride (NaF) radiotracers has shown a great promise in assessing patients with multiple myeloma (MM). However, the standardization of PET/computed tomography scans interpretation in patients with myeloma in ...

Fluorodeoxyglucose PET in Neurology and Psychiatry

PET Clinics, 2014
PET imaging with the most widely available PET tracer, 2-deoxy-2-[(18)F]fluoro-d-glucose (FDG), is a powerful tool in the differential diagnosis of numerous neurologic and psychiatric disorders, particularly in early disease stages. It also plays an important role in the longitudinal evaluation of treatment effects and the depiction of disease courses.

Muscle uptake of 18-fluorine fluorodeoxyglucose

Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 2000
F LUORODEOXYGLUCOSE (FDG) is well established as a tumor-seeking agent that is taken up by a wide variety of malignant tumors. Several nonmalignant lesions also are FDG avid, as are normal organ systems that use glucose as part of their metabolism. Low-grade FDG uptake in muscles is part of the normal biodistribution pattern of FDG, especially during ...

Effects of ketamine/xylazine and isoflurane on rat brain glucose metabolism measured by 18F‐fluorodeoxyglucose‐positron emission tomography

European Journal of Neuroscience, 2018
The aim of the present study was to investigate changes in glucose metabolism in male Wistar rats induced by the anesthetics isoflurane and ketamine combined with xylazine via 18F‐fluorodeoxyglucose‐positron emission tomography.

Fluorodeoxyglucose-PET/Computed Tomography–Guided Biopsy

PET Clinics, 2016
PET/computed tomography (CT) combines the anatomic information from CT with PET metabolic characterization. 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET is helpful to differentiate malignant lesions from benign ones, that usually show lower or no uptake. However, active inflammation or infectious disease might also present FDG uptake.

Role of Fluorodeoxyglucose-PET in Interventional Radiology

PET Clinics, 2022
Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-PET has expanding applications in the field of interventional radiology. FDG-PET provides both qualitative and quantitative assessments of malignancy, infection, and inflammation. These assessments can assist interventional radiologists in selecting the most appropriate treatment options for their oncology patients.

Fluorodeoxyglucose PET in Relapsing Polychondritis

New England Journal of Medicine, 2008
The authors report on a case of fever of unknown origin in which 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron-emission tomography (PET) was instrumental in depicting cartilage inflammation, which eventual...

18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose PET Procedures: Health Economic Aspects in Neurology

2014
Whole-body 18F-FDG PET procedures in oncology have demonstrated utility in patient management in the clinic, especially with the emergence of new hybrid systems such as PET-CT or, more recently, PET-MR. Consequently, the use of 18F-FDG PET brain procedures, which currently represent on average
