An MRI scan of the heart using gadolinium showed enhancement at the anteroseptal level (fig 1A), and 18F-FDG positron emission tomography (PET) showed focal uptake at exactly the same location (fig 1B). Transbronchial biopsy specimens showed typical granulomas and bronchoalveolar lavage revealed ...
The increased FDG uptake in the right frontoparietal area on the initial PET scan may represent malignancy (Fischman AJ, Cancer Treat Res. 2008; 143:67-92), ictal epileptogenic focus (Shore RM, Pediatr Ann. 2008;37:404-412), or infection/inflammation (Calfee DP, Wispelwey B, Semin Neurol...
Bruker, Ettlingen, Germany). For PET imaging, a static whole-body PET scan (15 min) was obtained. The energy windows were set to 357–664 keV, and the coincidence windows were set to 5 ns. The axial scan length was 117 mm. The image data were corrected for dead ...

Calcific aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common heart valve disorder in the Western world. Invasive valve replacement (via surgery or percutaneously) is the sole therapy available at present in patients with symptomatic AS. In the past decade several animal and clinical studies have provided new...
We presented here the FDG PET/CT findings of a 66-year-old man with a 3-month history of cough and progressive dyspnea. FDG PET/CT scan demonstrated nonuniform FDG uptake in the cardiac walls and pericardium. Biopsy of the heart revealed myeloid sarcoma. In addition, bone marrow biopsy ...
Each subject was injected with an intravenous bolus of FDG (5.06 ± 0.25 mCi; 187.03 ± 9.28 MBq), and after an approxi- mately 60-min uptake period, a static scan was per- formed for 8 min through the brain. The respiration and heart rate of the subjects were monitored and stabilized...
Thus the finding of no uptake pattern on F-FDG-PET scan had a sensitivity of 26% but positive predictive value of 100% for acute carditis cases. This study describes the F-FDG-PET uptake pattern in children with RHD and in 12 age-matched control subjects in the fasting state. Those ...

We present a case of sarcoidosis, which demonstrated an unremarkable gallium-67 scintigraphy but showed extensive FDG uptake in the chest and the brain on PET imaging.关键词: FDG positron emission tomography gallium scan sarcoidosis DOI: 10.1097/00003072-200503000-00013 被引量: 123 ...
