DOI: 10.1007/s00259-022-05747-3
Abstract: Kinetic parameters from dynamic 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) imaging offer complementary insights to the study of disease compared to static clinical imaging. However, dynamic imaging protocols are cumbersome due to the long acquisition time. Long axial field-of-view… read more here.

DOI: 10.1158/1538-7445.sabcs16-p4-02-05
Abstract: Background: Metabolic activity in lesions, measured by FDG-PET, is often used for assessing tumor aggressiveness and response to therapy. Patients may be scanned on different machines, so quantitative measurements should be reproducible. Reducing SUV variability… read more here.
