A radioactive iodine whole-body scan did not show uptake in the metastatic tumor. A PET scan with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) showed increased uptake in nodes in the anterior mediastinum and ...

A PET scan was considered positive with an FDG uptake of grade 2 or higher in any of seven vascular regions (thoracic and abdominal aorta, subclavian, axillary, carotid, iliac, and femoral arteries).

They previously had no uptake on PET scans. "Radiologists should be aware that this can happen when they are interpreting PET imaging for both FDG and choline," commented co-author Samuel Jang MD ...

On bone scan, there was ... later by tumor markers and PET/CT. Her skeletal system findings on PET/CT were hypermetabolic left 12th rib lesion with a standardized uptake value of 3.6 and ...

before having a 90-minute PET scan. The patients with beta-amyloid plaques had a higher uptake of the marker in certain brain areas than patients without the plaques. "The study supports the use ...

They wanted to see if they could use FLT PET-CT scan results during treatment to predict how well treatment was going to work. When they looked at the amount of FLT that was absorbed on the scans (the ...

A novel AI approach can accurately detect six different types of cancer on whole-body PET/CT scans, according to research ... molecular tumor burden and uptake across all cancer types.

The research demonstrates that the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) on 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT scans correlates with PSMA-expression in primary prostate cancer. By this means, researchers were ...

Many clinical reports have now addressed the role of FDG-PET in the follow-up of patients with treated DTC, either alone or in combination with CT; integrated PET and CT scans permit co ...
