The use of PET/CT imaging in the work-up and management of patients with lung cancer
has greatly increased in recent decades. The ability to combine functional and anatomical …

There has been an exponential growth in the development of radiolabeled peptides for
diagnostic and therapeutic applications in the last decade. The automated means of …

PURPOSE: F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) imaging is
now considered the most accurate clinical staging study for non–small-cell lung cancer …

The goal of this study was to assess the value of hybrid imaging using a combined PET/CT
device with 18F-FDG in the diagnosis and clinical management of suspected recurrent lung …

Background To develop an evidence-based approach to follow-up of patients after curative
intent therapy for lung cancer. Methods Guidelines on lung cancer diagnosis and …

A routine feature of positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging
is whole-body acquisition that results in many unexpected findings identified outside of the …

Methods A series of 32 consecutive patients (16 men, 16 women; median age 43 years,
range 15–71 years) with biochemically confirmed pheochromocytoma underwent computed …

The uptake of fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) is increased in processes with
enhanced glycolysis, including malignancy. It is this property of FDG which is exploited in …

Early detection of recurrence is clinically important and can improve the prognosis and
survival of patients with cancer. CT, considered the primary method of investigation because …

The information provided by functional images may be used to guide radiotherapy planning
by identifying regions that require higher radiation dose. In this work we investigate the …
