The limitation of the study is that it is retrospective. Patients underwent FDG PET for the detection of occult cancer; therefore, the imaging range was from the head to the middle of the thighs.

PET scans use fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG), a radioactive form of glucose, to show how aggressively tumours consume glucose ...

This study utilizes bibliometric analysis to investigate the research landscape of FAP-directed cancer theranostics, focusing ...

Background: Metabolic brain imaging with 2-[18 F]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET) is a supportive diagnostic and differential diagnostic tool for neurodegenerative ...

Due to a lack of controlled studies, the capacity of arterial 2-deoxy-2-[18 F]fluoro-D-glucose ([18 F]FDG) uptake in patients with cancer to detect this arterial inflammation remains unclear. Arterial ...

17, 2024 — Researchers have used a chemical compound to light up treatment-resistant cancers on imaging scans, in a breakthrough that could help medical professionals better target and treat ...

PET scans were acquired on a Siemens-ECAT scanner (Siemens Medical Systems, Erlangen, Germany) 30 min after intravenous injection of 250 MBq of 18 F-FDG. Imaging was performed in a resting condition ...

Diverse Applications: FAPI-based radiotracers have shown promising results in diagnosing various cancers, particularly gastrointestinal malignancies, and have potential applications in inflammatory ...

Obstructive uropathy secondary to malignant ureteral strictures is rare, with carcinoma of the breast accounting for less ...

Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) has developed new technology to enhance clinical bone imaging and decrease osteoporotic fractures in the elderly. The tool, described in a new SwRI-led study ...

Patients with predominantly cranial vs isolated extracranial GCA phenotypes present with different patterns of arterial involvement on 18F-FDG PET-CT scans.
