Positron emission tomography with f18-fluorodeoxyglucose in the staging and preoperative evaluation of malignant pleural mesothelioma [PDF]
Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2000 The purpose of this study was to evaluate the utility of positron emission tomography with F18-fluorodeoxyglucose in the preoperative evaluation and staging of malignant mesothelioma in patients who were candidates for aggressive combined modality therapy.Eighteen consecutive patients with biopsy-proven malignant mesothelioma underwent positron ...

F18-Fluorodeoxyglucose PET Scanning in Multiple Myeloma
The Hematologist, 2009 exaly +2 more sources
Blood, 2009 AbstractF18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) is a powerful tool to investigate the role of tumor metabolic activity and its suppression by therapy for cancer survival. As part of Total Therapy 3 for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma, metastatic bone survey, magnetic resonance imaging, and FDG-PET scanning were evaluated in 239 ...

Metabolic imaging using F18-fluorodeoxyglucose to assess myocardial viability
The International Journal of Cardiac Imaging, 1997Over the past 10 years, F18-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) imaging with positron emission tomography (PET) has emerged as an important technique in the delineation of myocardial viability. Using this technique it has become possible to predict recovery of ventricular function after revascularization in patients with chronic coronary artery disease. Data from

Positron emission tomography with fluorodeoxyglucose-F18 in an animal model of mania
Psychiatry Research: Neuroimaging, 2008Intracerebroventricular (ICV) administration of ouabain to young adult rats has been suggested to model human bipolar mania. In the human condition, mania and bipolar depression are both associated with reductions in frontal cerebral metabolism. We utilized [(18)F]-fluorodeoxyglucose [(18)FDG] positron emission tomography (PET) to visualize glucose ...

Regional myocardial utilization of glucose can be assessed non-invasively in man with the sugar analogue F18-2-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose (FDG) and positron emission tomography (PET). The preliminary observations made in patients with different clinical forms of ischaemic heart disease using FDG and PET are reported.

Fluorodeoxyglucose F18 positron emission tomography in a case of slowly progressive pure alexia
Neurocase, 2013We describe a 71-year-old patient with slowly progressive pure alexia in which analysis of her fluorodeoxyglucose FDG-PET scan revealed an area of focal hypometabolism in the visual word form area. She presented with difficulty reading. Examination revealed pure alexia with preservation of other cognitive domains. Brain MRI revealed only slight atrophy.

Lung Neoplasms with Low F18-Fluorodeoxyglucose Avidity
PET Clinics, 2018Some malignant lung neoplasms may demonstrate low or absent uptake on F18-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/computed tomography. Pathologic type and clinical stage are independent factors associated with FDG avidity. Among lung malignancies with low FDG avidity, adenocarcinoma in situ and carcinoid are the most common.

Clinical significance of thyroid uptake on F18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography
Annals of Nuclear Medicine, 2009Significant uptake of the thyroid is often identified as an incidental finding on whole-body F18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) for non-thyroid disease. Sometimes, it is a dilemma for radiologists to interpret clinical significance of thyroid uptake and give adequate recommendation for further evaluation.
