In recent years, there have been multiple advances in positron emission tomography/computed
tomography (PET/CT) that improve cancer imaging. The present generation of PET/CT …

Recently introduced PET systems using silicon photomultipliers with digital readout (dPET)
have an improved timing and spatial resolution, aiming at a better image quality than …

A major disadvantage of 18 F-FDG PET involves poor detection of small lesions and lesions
with low metabolism, caused by limited spatial resolution and relatively large image voxel …

Background For tumour imaging with PET, the literature proposes to administer a patient-specific
FDG activity that depends quadratically on a patient’s body weight. However, a …

Background A high SUV-reproducibility is crucial when different PET scanners are in use. We
evaluated the SUV variability in whole-body FDG-PET scans of patients with suspected or …

Purpose Digital PET systems (dPET) improve lesion detectability as compared to PET
systems with conventional photomultiplier tubes (cPET). We prospectively studied the …

Background We studied the added value of digital FDG-PET/CT in disease staging and
restaging compared to the standard work-up with contrast enhanced CT (ceCT) and CA19-9 in …

Purpose Performance standards for quantitative 18 F-FDG PET/CT studies are provided by
the EANM Research Ltd. (EARL) to enable comparability of quantitative PET in multicentre …

Background Our aim was to evaluate if a recently introduced TOF PET system with digital
photon counting technology (Philips Healthcare), potentially providing an improved image …

Background We evaluated the diagnostic implications of a small-voxel reconstruction for
lymph node characterization in breast cancer patients, using state-of-the-art FDG-PET/CT. We …
