Multiparametric Cardiac 18F-FDG PET: Pilot Comparison of FDG Delivery Rate with 82Rb Myocardial Blood Flow [PDF]
Myocardial blood flow (MBF) and flow reserve are usually quantified in the clinic with positron emission tomography (PET) using a perfusion-specific radiotracer (e.g. 82Rbchloride). However, the clinical accessibility of existing perfusion tracers remains limited.

We aimed to retrospectively determine if initial staging 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) can predict overall survival (OS) in oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OCSCC), which is currently a ...

Hepatic Positron Emission Tomography: Applications in Metabolism, Haemodynamics and Cancer
Evaluating in vivo the metabolic rates of the human liver has been a challenge due to its unique perfusion system. Positron emission tomography (PET) represents the current gold standard for assessing non-invasively tissue metabolic rates in vivo.

A resource-efficient deep learning framework for low-dose brain PET image reconstruction and analysis [PDF]
18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging usually needs a full-dose radioactive tracer to obtain satisfactory diagnostic results, which raises concerns about the potential health risks of radiation exposure, especially for pediatric patients.

PET Imaging in Cardiac Sarcoidosis: A Narrative Review with Focus on Novel PET Tracers
Sarcoidosis is a multi-system inflammatory disease characterized by the development of inflammation and noncaseating granulomas that can involve nearly every organ system, with a predilection for the pulmonary system.

Self-Supervised Learning for Physiologically-Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling in Dynamic PET [PDF]
Dynamic positron emission tomography imaging (dPET) provides temporally resolved images of a tracer enabling a quantitative measure of physiological processes. Voxel-wise physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling of the time activity curves (TAC) can provide relevant diagnostic information for clinical workflow.

Autopet Challenge 2023: nnUNet-based whole-body 3D PET-CT Tumour Segmentation [PDF]
Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography (FDG-PET) combined with Computed Tomography (CT) scans are critical in oncology to the identification of solid tumours and the monitoring of their progression. However, precise and consistent lesion segmentation remains challenging, as manual segmentation is time-consuming and subject to intra- and inter ...
