This case report presents a 60 year old male who had a nodal recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma diagnosed by FDG-PET scan and confirmed by the histopathological analysis. The aim of this case report describes and demonstrates how the nuclear medicine can help in the metastasis scenario of HCC...
Methods: Five healthy males (mean age 26.2 yrs) underwent 18 fluoro-2-deoxy glucose PET scans immediately before (3 mCi) and after (5 mCi) a 30 minute infusion with PBO. Five templates (A-E) comprised of 62 regions of interest (ROIs) were applied to five matched transaxial planes ...
Additionally, a single-dose injection of heparin administered 15 minutes before FDG-PET/CT can help suppress physiologic FDG uptake of the myocardium. Heparin stimulates hydrolysis of circulating triglycerides releasing more cardiac oxidative substrate in the form of fatty acids and also reduces cellular...

Diagnostic value of full-dose FDG PET/CT for axillary lymph node staging in breast cancer patients The aims of this study were (1) to evaluate FDG PET/CT and CT for the detection of axillary lymph node metastases in breast cancer (BC) patients and (2) to... TA Heusner,S Kuemmel,S ...
Full size table The patients' prognoses We used a logistic regression analysis to examine the tumor diameter and the PET parameters of FDG SUVmax, FMISO SUVmax, TMR, and TBR. The analysis results demonstrated that all of these PET parameters and the tumor diameter were significant predictors of...
PET scan results were described by method of measuring FDG-PET avidity, the levels of risk or avidity, and the standardized uptake value threshold used to differentiate benign and cancerous diagnosis of disease. Details of study selection, data extraction, and synthesis are described in the e...
Exact localisation of thoracic lymph nodes (LNs) on fluorine-18 fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) can be hampered by the paucity of anatomical landmarks. In non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients referred for locoregional LN staging, we prospectively examined...
