Role of fluoroethyl tyrosine positron emission tomography-computed tomography scan in differentiating ewing's sarcoma from osteomyelitis

World Journal of Nuclear Medicine, 2019
Ewing's sarcoma is a kind of undifferentiated reticulocytic sarcoma, which was first reported in 1921 by James Ewing. It is difficult to differentiate Ewing's sarcoma from osteomyelitis on computed tomography (CT) and X-ray and hence cytological ...

Optimisation of CT protocols in PET-CT across different scanner models using different automatic exposure control methods and iterative reconstruction algorithms

EJNMMI Physics, 2021
Background A significant proportion of the radiation dose from a PET-CT examination is dependent on the CT protocol, which should be optimised for clinical purposes.

Xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis mimicking gallbladder cancer on 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography scan

World Journal of Nuclear Medicine, 2021
The abnormal thickening of the gallbladder (GB) wall can be caused by a malignant condition like gallbladder carcinoma or by benign lesions such as chronic cholecystitis or xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis (XGC).

PET Radioligands for in Vivo Visualization of Neuroinflammation. [PDF]

, 2014
Neuroinflammation is a well-orchestrated, dynamic, multicellular process playing a major role in neurodegenerative disorders. The microglia which make up the innate immune system of the central nervous system are key cellular mediators of ...

Cessation of anti-VLA-4 therapy in a focal rat model of multiple sclerosis causes an increase in neuroinflammation

EJNMMI Research, 2019
Background Positron emission tomography (PET) can be used for in vivo evaluation of the pathology associated with multiple sclerosis. We investigated the use of longitudinal PET imaging and the 18-kDa translocator protein (TSPO) binding radioligand [18F ...

Practical issues and limitations of brain attenuation correction on a simultaneous PET-MR scanner

EJNMMI Physics, 2020
Background Despite the advent of clinical PET-MR imaging for routine use in 2011 and the development of several methods to address the problem of attenuation correction, some challenges remain.

Opportunities for PET to deliver clinical benefit in cancer:breast cancer as a paradigm [PDF]

, 2010
The glucose analogue fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) has demonstrated enhanced uptake in the majority of tumours as a result of increased uptake and fixation by phosphorylation. It is the most widely used radiotracer in positron emission tomography (PET), being
