Few diagnostic procedures are available to determine the degree of bone marrow cellularity
and the numbers of cycling cells in patients with bone marrow disorders. Noninvasive …

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a neoplasm of hematopoietic stem cells with partial or
complete loss of the ability to differentiate but with preserved proliferation capacity. The aim …

Background Radiotherapy (RT) and chemotherapy are important treatment modalities for a
variety of malignant tumor types. During therapy for malignant diseases, often the limitation …

The aim of this study was to investigate the correlations between 18F-FDG uptake by bone
marrow and various hematological parameters. Forty-eight patients who underwent FDG …

Purpose The value of 18 F-FDG PET in the diagnostic approach of multiple myeloma (MM)
remains incompletely elicited. Little is known about the kinetics of 18 F-FDG in the bone …

The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the characteristics of increased bone
marrow uptake of 18F-FDG in patients with leukemia who underwent whole-body 18F-FDG …

Historically, it has been difficult to monitor the acute impact of anticancer therapies on
hematopoietic organs on a whole-body scale. Deeper understanding of the effect of …

Objective: The nucleoside 3′-deoxy-3′-fluorothymidine (alovudine) is an antiviral agent
accumulating in proliferating cells. We prospectively evaluated the biodistribution of the PET …

Noninvasive imaging techniques have been used in the past for visualization the functional
activity of the bone marrow compartment. Imaging with radiolabelled compounds may allow …

Medicine (1). Although the use of PET has exploded within the last few years, this has
primarily resulted from the application of 18F-FDG in oncology research and clinical …
