The adaptation to positron emission tomography of the steady-state technique for the
measurement of alveolar ventilation, based on the shortlived radionuclide neon-19 (T,= 17.4 …

With positron emission tomography, quantitative measurements of regional alveolar and
mixed venous concentrations of positron-emitting radioisotopes can be made within a …

Data obtained during positron emission tomographic (PET) imaging of the lung are
expressed in terms of lung volume, not lung weight. Therefore changes in PET data may …

We compared regional measurements of the pulmonary transcapillary escape rate
(rPTCER) for 68Ga-transferrin, obtained by positron emission tomography (PET), with …

Continuous infusion of 15 O-labeled water allows a quantitative measurement of the total
water pool in the chest region by positron emission tomography (PET). By subsequent …

Aim Imaging of lung perfusion with positron emission tomography (PET) is already possible
with 68Ga labeled denaturized albumin. The purpose of our study was to produce and test a …

Regional measurements of extravascular lung water (rEVLW) were made with positron
emission tomography (PET) and 15O-labeled radionuclides. The label used to measure the …

18F-FDG positron emission tomographic (PET) scanning is a major imaging tool widely
used to investigate lung function and lung disease. Tomographic imaging of drug delivered …

This article reviews the potential use of positron emission tomography (PET), alone and in
combination with computed tomography, for evaluating the severity of disease in cystic …

Regional measurements of tissue isotope concentration, made using positron emission
tomography (PET), allow tracer models to be used in a quantitative manner to provide …
