The role of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) is increasing in the diagnosis of polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR), one of the most common inflammatory rheumatic diseases.

Fractal and multifractal analysis of PET-CT images of metastatic melanoma before and after treatment with ipilimumab [PDF]
PET/CT with F-18-Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) images of patients suffering from metastatic melanoma have been analysed using fractal and multifractal analysis to assess the impact of monoclonal antibody ipilimumab treatment with respect to therapy outcome.

The 18F-FDG PET scan in oncology
A rapidly emerging clinical application of Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is the detection and staging of cancer. The glucose analogue tracer 2-[fluorine-18]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (18F-FDG) has been used successfully for assessing primary tumours ...

Unsupervised Generation of Pseudo Normal PET from MRI with Diffusion Model for Epileptic Focus Localization [PDF]
[$^{18}$F]fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) has emerged as a crucial tool in identifying the epileptic focus, especially in cases where magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) diagnosis yields indeterminate results. FDG PET can provide the metabolic information of glucose and help identify abnormal areas that are not easily found ...
