PET and PET/CT for Pancreatic Malignancies
PET Clinics, 2008FDG PET imaging is useful for preoperative diagnosis of pancreatic carcinoma in patients with suspected pancreatic cancer in whom CT fails to identify a discrete tumor mass or in whom FNAs are nondiagnostic. FDG PET imaging is useful for M staging and restaging by detecting CT occult metastatic disease, allowing noncurative resection to be avoided in ...

PET and PET/CT in Management of the Lymphomas
Radiologic Clinics of North America, 2006Within recent years, F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET has become the most important nuclear medicine and radiology imaging modality in the management of lymphoma. FDG-PET detects more disease sites and involved organs than conventional staging procedures, including CT, and has a large influence on staging.

PET and PET/CT in Radiotherapy
2008Many aspects have to be considered in planning, applying, and following up radiotherapy procedures. This field poses a major challenge for diagnostic techniques. The first goal in the definition of multimodal oncological therapy concepts is to identify the patients who benefit from a definitive or adjuvant radiotherapy.

Oral presentations, 2018
Objectives Concerns about unnecessary medical imaging have led to the development of guidelines for a variety of indications and modalities by radiology and specialty groups. This study evaluates the utility of four national imaging guidelines, which assess the value of positron emitting tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT).

Psychological Reports, 1998
Beneficial and adverse effects of pets for individuals in a wide range of circumstances have been reported. Nevertheless, well-designed unbiased experiments and long-term follow-up studies are needed. Pets appear to be therapeutic for some individuals and deleterious for others. The controversies concerning the effects of pets on health merit objective

From PET detectors to PET scanners
European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, 2003This review describes the properties of available and emerging radiation detector and read-out technologies and discusses how they may affect PET scanner performance. After a general introduction, there is a section in which the physical properties of several different detector scintillators are compared.

Fundamentals of PET and PET/CT imaging
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2011In this review, the fundamental principles of fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) and FDG PET/computed tomography (CT) imaging have been described. The basic physics of PET instrumentation, radiotracer chemistry, and the artifacts, as well as normal physiological or benign pathological variants, have been described and presented
