PET and PET/CT for Pancreatic Malignancies [PDF]
PET Clinics, 2008 FDG 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 Radiotherapy [PDF]
, 2008 Many 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.

Pharmacological Research, 2001
Emission tomography techniques and, in particular, positron emission tomography (PET) enable the in vivo study of several physiological and neurochemical variables in human subjects using methods originally developed for quantitative autoradiography. In particular, PET allows one to evaluate in human subjects: (a) the effect of specific neurochemical ...

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).

PET and PET/CT in cardiovascular disease
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2011The present review provides an overview of the role of cardiac positron emission tomography in the diagnosis and management of cardiovascular disease. It expands on the relative advantages and disadvantages over other imaging modalities as well as the available evidence supporting its value in the diagnosis and management of patients with coronary ...

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.

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.

PET positive, PET negative, or PET peeve?
Blood, 2010In this issue of Blood , Horning and colleagues report that there was disagreement by 3 nuclear medicine experts on interpretation of FDG-PET images obtained in the context of a clinical trial in aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma 32% of the time. 1 These results emphasize the need for standardized criteria to interpret interim PET scans in lymphoma and
