Whole-body positron emission tomography and positron emission tomography/computed tomography in gynecologic oncology

International Journal of Gynecological Cancer, 2004
The advent of positron emission tomography (PET) and PET/computed tomography (CT) now enables us to detect metabolically active gynecologic cancers with greater accuracy than was possible with anatomic imagings. Fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose PET has been useful in differentiation of malignant from benign lymph nodes, and residual or recurrent cancers ...

Positron emission computed tomography

1985
Regional myocardial blood flow and substrate metabolism can be non-invasively evaluated and quantified with positron emission computed tomography (Positron-CT). Tracers of exogenous glucose utilization and fatty acid metabolism are available and have been extensively tested. Specific tracer kinetic models have been developed or are being tested so that

Positron Emission Tomography–Computed Tomography Patient Management and Workflow

Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI, 2008
This article reviews the major considerations involved in optimizing positron emission tomography-computed tomographic (PET-CT) workflows including patient management and specific acquisition, processing, and archiving procedures. Due to the dual modality nature of PET-CT and the needs of the patients typically undergoing these examinations, there is a

Positron emission tomography versus positron emission tomography/computed tomography: from ?unclear? to ?new-clear? medicine

Molecular Imaging & Biology, 2004
PET/CT is a new diagnostic imaging modality, which proves that adding PET and CT is not merely additive, but highly synergistic. While PET provides high sensitivity for lesion detection, CT provides the anatomic backdrop, which frequently is important in order to make a specific diagnosis.

Role of Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography

2016
Colorectal cancer (CRC) incidence and mortality rates are extremely variable around the world. CRC is the second most commonly diagnosed cancer in both genders [1]. Many patients are cured with initial surgery for primary disease and postoperative chemotherapy.

[Positron emission computed tomography].

Journal of cardiology. Supplement, 1989
Positron emission computed tomography (PET) provides high quality tomographic images of the heart with accurate attenuation correction. The use of various compounds labeled with ultra-short lived positron-emitting radionuclides, such as 11C, 13N, 15O and 18F, allows physiological and biochemical measurements in vivo.

Positron emission tomography–computed tomography for surgeons

2016
Abstract Common indications and the basic principles for positron emission tomography–computed tomography (PET-CT) imaging are outlined in this chapter with a focus on application to the surgical management of cancer patients. The imaging physics is unique owing to the use of antimatter (positrons).
