Positron emission tomography [PDF]
Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a method for measuring biochemical and physiological processes in vivo in a quantitative way by using radiopharmaceuticals labelled with positron emitting radionuclides such as 11C, 13N, 15O and 18F and by measuring ...

18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography / computed tomography in primary Ewing sarcoma of the lung [PDF]
Introduction. Ewing sarcoma is rare in medical practice, and evaluating positron emission tomography / computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging of soft tissue Ewing sarcoma is a challenge. Primary Ewing sarcoma of the lung is an infrequent diagnosis.

The developments in positron emission tomography (PET) are reviewed with an emphasis on instrumentation for clinical PET imaging. After a brief summary of positron imaging before the advent of computed tomography, various improvements are highlighted including the move from PET scanners with septa to fully 3D scanners, changes in the preferred ...

Radiomics Analysis of Contrast-Enhanced CT Predicts Survival in Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma
PurposeTo develop and validate the radiomics nomogram that combines clinical factors and radiomics features to estimate overall survival (OS) in patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), and assess the incremental value of radiomics for OS ...
