The primary goals of this study were to investigate the behavior of normal lung tissues after
radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and to determine the suitability of 18F-FDG PET, using a …

The utility of 18F-FDG PET/CT for response assessment in malignant lung tumors treated
with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and for the detection and prediction of local recurrence …

Objective The objective of this study was to compare the diagnostic performance for
detecting local tumor progression between FDG PET and CT in patients who received lung …

Objectives We compared the diagnostic value of fluorine-18-fiuorodeoxyglucose positron
emission tomography (FDG-PET) with that of computed tomography (CT) following …

The objective of this study was to evaluate the early changes after radiofrequency ablation
(RFA) in VX2 rabbit tumors implanted into the back muscles by diffusion-weighted magnetic …

Purpose To compare fluorine 18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography
(PET) combined with computed tomography (PET/CT) and chest CT in the evaluation of the …

Recently, the thymidine analog 3′-deoxy-3′-18F-fluorothymidine (FLT) was suggested for
imaging tumoral proliferation. In this prospective study, we examined whether 18F-FLT …

effective for patients with unresectable primary, recurrent, or metastatic thoracic …

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether 18F-FDG PET/CT can be used for in
vivo chemosensitivity testing and to determine the optimal time point for observation …

Increased glucose metabolism of inflammatory tissues is the main source of false-positive
18F-FDG PET findings in oncology. It has been suggested that radiolabeled nucleosides …
