Assessment of Fluorodeoxyglucose F18-Labeled Positron Emission Tomography for Diagnosis of High-Risk Lung Nodules. [PDF]

JAMA Surg, 2018
Clinicians rely heavily on fluorodeoxyglucose F18-labeled positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) imaging to evaluate lung nodules suspicious for cancer. We evaluated the performance of FDG-PET for the diagnosis of malignancy in differing populations with varying cancer prevalence.To determine the performance of FDG-PET/computed tomography (CT) in ...

Headache attributed to giant cell arteritis complicated with rheumatic polymyalgia diagnosed with F18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography and computed tomography: a case report [PDF]

Frontiers in Neurology, 2023
Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is a kind of systemic vasculitis affecting individuals over 50 years old and is often the cause of new-onset headaches in older adults. Patients with GCA sometimes have rheumatic polymyalgia (PMR).

An interesting case of Posterior Layering in the Urinary bladder on Fluorine- 18 Fluorodeoxyglucose (F18-FDG) PET-CT study

Pulse, 2023
Contrast PET/CT may show layering within the UB, and several examples of have been reported in the literature. But without using contrast this is rare. Our case demonstrates the interesting posterior layering of F18-FDG in urinary bladder in a 78 years ...
