The threshold of clinical severity of cervical dystonia for positive 18F-FDG PET/CT study
… clinical severity of cervical dystonia (CD) and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) findings and to determine the threshold of the clinical severity of CD for acquisition of positive 18F-FDG PET/CT study findings. METHODS: Forty-seven subjects …

Comparison of 18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) and conventional imaging (CI) for locally advanced breast cancer staging: a prospective study from a tertiary hospital cancer centre in Western Cape
… distant metastases is one important prognostic factor in locally advanced breast cancer (LABC), accurate staging at diagnosis is crucial to ensure patients receive the appropriate treatment. Increasing evidence shows that the use of 18F-FDG PET/CT for disease staging of LABC may improve diagnostic …

Evaluation of 18F FDG-PET/CT in Patients with Gastric Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma : Correlation with GLUT-1 Expression and Histologic Finding
… ring cell carcinoma (GSRC) is known to have low FDG uptake. The aim of the study was to investigate the relation between FDG uptake and glucose transporter-1 (GLUT-1) expression in GSRC patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Forty patients (28 men, mean age 54±12) with histologically confirmed GSRC who …

Improving Quantitative Treatment Response Monitoring With Deformable Image Registration
Quantitative imaging with 18F-FDG PET/CT has the potential to provide an in vivo assessment of response to radiotherapy (RT). However, comparing tissue tracer uptake in longitudinal studies is often confounded by variations in patient setup and potential treatment induced gross anatomic changes. …
