2-deoxy-2-(18Fluorine)-fluoro-D-glucose (FDG) PET/CT is an integral part of lung carcinoma
staging and frequently used in the assessment of solitary pulmonary nodules. However, a …

Purpose The aim of our work is to evaluate the added diagnostic value of respiratory gated
(4-D) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in lung lesion …

Background While the effects of respiratory motion on measuring metabolic signal in PET/CT
scanning are well known, it is still standard practice in most centres to scan patients while …

Aim To evaluate the effect of the 18F-FDG PET-CT respiratory gating (4D) study in the
correct documentation of pulmonary lesions with faint uptake in standard PET-CT. Methods …

Background Respiratory motion is known to deteriorate positron emission tomography (PET)
images and may lead to potential diagnostic errors when a standardized uptake value (SUV) …

Respiratory motion may reduce the sensitivity of 18F-FDG PET for the detection of small
pulmonary nodules close to the base of the lungs. This motion also interferes with attempts …

OBJECTIVE. The aim of this study was to evaluate prospectively the effects of respiratory
gating during FDG PET/CT on the determination of lesion size and the measurement of …

Purpose To demonstrate the feasibility of respiratory gating during whole-body scan for lung
lesions in routine 18 F-FDG PET/CT examinations using a time-of-flight (TOF)-capable …

Purpose The aim of this study is to assess a software-based method with semiautomated
correction for partial volume effect (PVE) to quantify the metabolic activity of pulmonary …

Purpose The purpose of the study was to evaluate prospectively whether integrated 2-deoxy-
2-[18 F] fluoro-d-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG …
