The investigation of solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN) and non-small cell lung cancer
(NSCLC) has rapidly become one of the main indications for 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) …

Abstract FDG PET and PET/CT are now widely used in oncological imaging for tumor
characterization, staging, restaging, and response evaluation. However, numerous benign …

Purpose To compare the clinical impact of combined positron emission tomography (PET)
and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging to that of combined PET and computed tomography …

Background: Despite improvements in treatments, metastatic breast cancer remains difficult
to cure. Bones constitute the most common site of first-time recurrence, occurring in 40–75 …

PURPOSE: to investigate the role of FDG-PET and PET/CT in the evaluation of vasculitis.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: a systematic revision of the papers published in …

Current widespread use of cross-sectional imaging has led to exponential rise in detection
of solitary pulmonary nodules (SPNs). Whilst large numbers of these are benign …

PET imaging, particularly oncologic applications of 18F-FDG, has become a routine
diagnostic study. To better describe malignancies, various PET parameters are used. In 18F …

Purpose This study aims to evaluate dynamic 2-deoxy-2-[18 F] fluoro-d-glucose (FDG)
uptake in normal tissues. Procedures Thirty male patients underwent FDG positron emission …

Introduction By performing a systematic review and meta-analysis, the diagnostic value of 18
F-FDG PET/MRI in breast lesions, lymph nodes, and distant metastases was assessed, and …

In this review, we summarize the false-positive and false-negative results of standard 18 F-
FDG-PET/CT in characterizing musculoskeletal lesions and discussed the added value and …
