Imaging Atherosclerosis With F18-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography
Coronary heart disease remains the leading cause of death in the U.S. Despite advances in diagnostic imaging and therapy, identification of patients at risk remains challenging. Anatomical imaging of luminal narrowing and determination of plaque size alone have proven to be inadequate ([1][1 ...

Quantifying myocardial inflammation using F18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography in cardiac sarcoidosis [PDF]
Sarcoidosis is a disease of unknown etiology which is characterized by the formation of non-caseating granulomas in multiple organs. Cardiac involvement in sarcoidosis, which occurs in at least one in four patients, is associated with a worse prognosis and significant morbidity from conduction abnormalities, arrhythmias, and congestive heart failure ...

Local imaging to interpret tumor size in F18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/CT in lung cancers [PDF]
This study aimed to determine the thoracic and extra-thoracic extension of the disease in patients diagnosed with lung cancer and who had whole-body F18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/CT imaging and to investigate whether there is a relationship between tumor size and extrathoracic spread.A total of 308 patients diagnosed with lung ...

Visual versus semi-quantitative analysis of 18F-FDG-PET in amnestic MCI. An European Alzheimer\u27s Disease Consortium (EADC) project [PDF]
We aimed to investigate the accuracy of FDG-PET to detect the Alzheimer\u27s disease (AD) brain glucose hypometabolic pattern in 142 patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) and 109 healthy controls.

Caspase-Cleaved Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein Within Cerebellar White Matter of the Alzheimer\u27s Disease Brain [PDF]
Although the cerebellum is generally thought of as an area spared of Alzheimer\u27s disease (AD) pathology, recent evidence suggests that balance and mobility dysfunction may be magnified in affected individuals.
