Pediatric 18F-FDG dosing and acquisition durations are generally based on coarse
extrapolation from adult guidelines. This study sought to determine whether shorter …

Adult PET/CT acquisition protocols need to be modified for pediatric imaging to minimize the
radiation dose while maintaining diagnostic utility. We developed pediatric PET/CT …

Purpose To investigate the effects of dose reduction on image quality and lesion
detectability of oncological 18 F-FDG total-body PET/CT in pediatric oncological patients …

Purpose To explore the impact of a true half dose of [18F]-FDG on image quality in pediatric
oncological patients undergoing total-body PET/CT and investigate short acquisition times …

Objectives To assess the evolution of administered radiotracer activity for F-18-
fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) PET/CT or PET/MR in pediatric patients (0–16 years) …

This article was written to give health-care providers working in the field of nuclear medicine
some background information on pediatric PET/CT. Specifically, it provides information …

Purpose To explore the feasibility of reducing administered tracer activities and to assess
optimal activities for combined 18 F-FDG-PET/MRI in pediatric oncology. Methods 30 18 F …

In this study, we investigated the diagnostic performance of whole-body 18F-FDG imaging
using a PET/MRI scanner with time-of-flight capability for low-dose clinical imaging of …

Objective: The aim of this study is to report a local diagnostic reference level (DRL) for
paediatric whole-body (WB) fludeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography …

BACKGROUND. Digital PET scanners with increased sensitivity may allow shorter scan
acquisition times or reductions in administered radiopharmaceutical activities. OBJECTIVE …
