Feasibility of Systematic Respiratory-Gated Acquisition in Unselected Patients Referred for 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography

Frontiers in Medicine, 2018
ObjectiveRespiratory motion in 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG PET/CT) induces blurred images, leading to errors in location and quantification for lung and abdominal lesions.

FDG PET/CT imaging and circulating biomarkers of inflammation in desmoplakin cardiomyopathy

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1485-1489, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Inflammation has been implicated in the pathogenesis of desmoplakin (DSP) cardiomyopathy, and retrospective studies have described abnormal myocardial fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) findings in symptomatic patients eventually diagnosed with DSP cardiomyopathy.

Positron emission tomography-magnetic resonance liver parenchyma attenuation correction artifact in secondary hemochromatosis

World Journal of Nuclear Medicine, 2020
Positron emission tomography-magnetic resonance (PET-MR) hybrid imaging is a relatively new imaging modality combining the superb MR contrast capabilities among different soft-tissue structures with the high sensitivity of PET functional imaging.

Deep segmentation networks predict survival of non-small cell lung cancer [PDF]

, 2019
Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) represents approximately 80-85% of lung cancer diagnoses and is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Recent studies indicate that image-based radiomics features from positron emission tomography-computed

Imaging of the Aortic Valve Using Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2011
Because fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) imaging provides a noninvasive index of inflammation, we sought to assess whether FDG uptake in the aortic valve (AV) is increased in aortic stenosis (AS).AS is associated with valvular inflammation.FDG-PET/computed tomography data were retrospectively evaluated in 84 patients (age 73 ...

Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors and Cardiovascular Adverse Events

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract In the last years, we assisted to a tremendous increase in therapeutic options for the management of cancers, with immunotherapy at the forefront of this innovation. Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have been developed to enhance the activity of the immune system against cancer cells (1) and the number of approvals for ICIs has rapidly ...

Detection of Hepatic Metastasis from Early Delayed Images of Modified Dual-Time-Point F-18 FDG PET/CT Images in a Patient with Breast Cancer

Diagnostics
We present a rare case of focal F-18-2-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose (FDG) uptake in the liver observed during a modified dual-time-point F-18 FDG positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT), so-called early delayed scanning, in a 53-year-old ...

Dual-Time-Point FDG Uptake Correlates with Prognostic Factors of Invasive Breast Cancer: Clinical Usefulness of Early Delayed Scanning

Diagnostics, 2019
This study investigated correlations between fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake in tumors as assessed by modified dual-time-point (mDTP) FDG positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in invasive breast cancer (iBC) and several prognostic ...
