Objective: The aim was to investigate normal patterns of brain metabolism determined by F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET)/MRI during childhood and adolescence. Patients and methods: A retrospective analysis was carried out on all paediatric patients who underwent FDG PET/MRI at...

Cross-sectional PET imaging studies report that brain glucose metabolism becomes qualitatively similar to adult patterns by the end of the first year of life (Chugani, 1994; Chugani and Phelps, 1986; Chugani et al, 1987). However, overall brain metabolism rises to twice that of adult levels ...
In two patients with confirmed recurrence, CEA became positive 2 months after PET scan indicating earlier detection of disease with PET. The false positive PET findings were mainly in the bowel and were secondary to acute/chronic inflammation and granulation tissue. In 3 patients with false ...
The visual analysis of amyloid PET images was conducted by an independent, board-certified specialist in nuclear medicine (VG), following the tracer-specific standardized operating procedures approved by the European Medicinal Agency. Specifically, regional positivity was assessed for each scan, specifying...
Background Positron emission tomography (PET) scanning with [18 F]fluorodeoxyglucose (18 F-FDG) is a useful diagnostic and prediction tool in brain tumors, but its value in childhood diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is still unclear. For interpretation of 18 F-FDG PET results in DIPG,...
We studied the contribution of FDG PET/CT to the localization of the epileptic focus in patients with TLE and normal MRI. METHOD AND MATERIALS A total of 234 patients with drug resistant TLE, underwent evaluation for possible surgical treatment with scalp EEG video monitoring, PET/CT, high ...
The assessment of time-of-flight on image quality and quantification with reduced administered activity and scan times in 18F-FDG PET. The last decade has seen considerable technological innovations in PET detectors with the availability, among other advances, of time-of-flight (TOF). TOF ... ...
