1206 Objectives: The temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a complex body joint that plays an
important part in daily activity: chewing, speaking, swallowing. When the TMJ is involved in …

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose
(FDG) and 18F-sodium fluoride (NaF) PET/CT for assessing the status of the …

Background Inflammation of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) has a relatively high
correlation (> 17%) to the late stages of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). RA is a chronic …

Aim To investigate the usefulness of a quantitative parameter (maximum standardised
uptake value [SUVmax]) of 18 F-sodium fluoride (NaF) positron-emission tomography …

368 Objectives Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic inflammatory disease affecting small
and large joints. Joint Inflammation is detectable with FDG-PET. The purpose of this study is …

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical utility of fluoride-18
positron emission tomography (18F-PET)/CT with that of conventional 99mTc-methylene …

Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy of diagnostic imaging for temporomandibular joint
rheumatoid arthritis (TMJ RA). In-flammation of the TMJ has a high correlation (> 17%) …

The article offers information on a study related to the assessment of temporomandibular
joint disease using FDG and NaF-PET/CT scanning in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and healthy …

2769 Introduction: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease
that affects synovial joints and results in swelling, pain, and stiffness. 18 F …

Abstract Aim 2‐deoxy‐2‐[18F] fluoro‐d‐glucose positron emission tomography/computed
tomography (FDG‐PET/CT) can portray increased glycolysis due to inflammation in …
