Cancer Survivor Peth Will Lend Bartlett Some Inspiration
Results of a phase II prospective study of 105 cancer patients revealed that images acquired by an ultrafast 2 min PET/CT scan, using a 185 MBq radiotracer dose, are of diagnostic quality in patients with a body mass index (BMI) under 35. The researchers performed 18F-FDG PET imaging 60...
Xrays can sometimes be used to help guide the biopsy needle into the bone, but they are not used to diagnose the cancer itself. Other tests such as a blood test or MRI/CT scan may be performed alongside the biopsy to help provide further information about the cancer and its location in ...

a PET scan by means of external or data-driven trigger schemes [30]. Several techniques have been developed to address these distortions, such as 4D PET/CT [31] and quiescent phase/amplitude gating [32] with various levels of success and limited adoption into routine clinical work given the...

Initial works have been published for the treatment of esophageal [52] and oropharyngeal cancer [53] using PET images as input. Despite the prediction being here the response to chemotherapy or radiotherapy, technically, the same approach can be used to train a system for surgical prediction by ...
