Positron emission tomography (PET) provides metabolic information that has been
documented to be useful in patient care. The properties of positron decay permit accurate …

As the applications of metabolic imaging are expanding, radiolabeled amino acids may gain
increased clinical interest. This review first describes the basic aspects of amino acid …

Purpose 18Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET) is widely used for
the staging of lymphoma. We investigated whether the intensity of tumor FDG uptake could …

Abstract We retrospectively evaluated 18fluoro-2-deoxyglucose positron emission
tomography (FDG-PET) scans in 172 patients with lymphoma and correlated results with …

Positron emission tomography (PET) is now primarily used in oncological indication owing
to the successful application of fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) in an increasing …
