6 Νοε 2023 · Understanding FDG and its role in PET scans is key to interpreting your imaging results. When you hear terms like “FDG uptake” or “FDG activity,” they refer to the way cells absorb and use this tracer, providing insight into your metabolic health.
18 Οκτ 2016 · FDG PET/CT demonstrates very intense uptake at all sites with lower uptake in the subcarinal node, only evident when widening the PET window. The findings suggest a different tumour biology at this site with necrosis.
4 Σεπ 2024 · A radiologist will read your scan and send your results to your doctor. If your PET-CT was done to find cancer cells, your doctor should have your results in 2 business days. Ask your doctor how they will share your results with you.
17 Μαρ 2020 · An FDG PET scan is one of the most powerful tools we have to detect and monitor disease. Most often used in conjunction with CT or MRI, it helps radiologists distinguish between healthy tissue and diseased tissue so that cancer can be accurately diagnosed, correctly staged, and appropriately treated.
23 Οκτ 2015 · Understanding the characteristics of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, as imaged by FDG PET/CT, is crucial for determining treatment strategy, because it helps to avoid incorrect staging and also provides an accurate assessment of treatment response.
PET is a tomographic scintigraphic technique in which a computer-generated image of local radioactive tracer distribution in tissues is produced through the detection of annihilation photons that are emitted when radionuclides introduced into the body decay and release positrons. 18 F-FDG PET is a tomographic imaging technique that uses a radiol...
12 Σεπ 2020 · Incidental acute findings in patients undergoing FDG PET/CT are increasingly common, and awareness of these findings and their mimics are important in delivering a clinically relevant and accurate radiological report for directing further management. Summary.
