BACKGROUND The purpose of the present study was to examine retrospectively the contribution of 18Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography computed tomography(18FDG-PET/CT)to the evaluation of response to first-line gemcitabine plus cispla-tin-based chemotherapy in patients with metastatic bladder cancer.AIM To evaluate the response to Gemcitabine plus Cisplatin-based chemotherapy using 18FDG-PET/CT imaging in patients with metastatic bladder cancer.METHODS Between July 2007 and April 2019,79 patients underwent 18FDG-PET/CT imaging with the diagnosis of Metastatic Bladder Carcinoma(M-BCa).A total of 42 pa-tients(38 male,4 female)were included in the study,and all had been admi-nistered Gemcitabine plus Cisplatin-based chemotherapy.After completion of the therapy,the patients underwent a repeat 18FDG-PET/CT scan and the results were compared with the PET/CT findings before chemotherapy according to European Organisation for the Research and treatment of cancer criteria.Mean age was 66.1 years and standard deviation was 10.7 years(range:41–84 years).RESULTS Of the patients,seven(16.6%)were in complete remission,17(40.5%)were in partial remission,six(14.3%)had a stable disease,and 12(28.6%)had a pro-gressive disease.The overall response rate was 57.1 percent.CONCLUSION 18FDG-PET/CT can be considered as a successful imaging tool in evaluating response to first-line chemotherapy for metastatic bladder cancer.Anatomical and functional data obtained from PET/CT scans may be useful in the planning of secondline and thirdline chemotherapy. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Peripheral FDG accumulation in a hepatic hemangioma presenting in a patient with prolonged fever is rare.Therefore,clinicians should pay close attention to patients with hepatic mass.CASE SUMMARY A 54-year-old woman with a 4-wk history of daily fevers was admitted to our hospital.A whole body^(18)-Fluordesoxyglucose(PET-FDG)positron emission tomography/computed tomography(PET/CT)was performed to elucidate the source of the fever.However,whole body^(18)-FDG PET/CT raised the suspicion of a malignant lesion because of peripheral FDG accumulation(SUVmax 3.5 g/mL)higher than that of the normal liver parenchyma(SUVmax 1.6 g/mL)surrounding a hypoactive area,and no other abnormalities were showed.Subsequently,the patient underwent liver mass resection.Histopathology showed a hepatic cavernous hemangioma with fatty infiltration around the lesion.The fever disappeared four days after surgery and the patient did not present any complications during follow-up.CONCLUSION Fatty infiltration in the peripheral parts of hepatic cavernous hemangioma may lead to subacute inflammation which further activate the Kupffer cells.This may cause prolonged fever and peripheral rim FDG accumulation on PET/CT. 展开更多

BACKGROUND This study was to investigate the application value of whole-body dynamic ^(18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose(FDG)positron emission tomography/computed tomogra-phy(PET/CT)imaging in recurrent anastomotic tumors of digestive tract after gastric and esophageal cancer surgery.Postoperative patients with gastric and esophageal cancer have a high risk of tumor recurrence,and traditional imaging methods have certain limitations in early detection of recurrent tumors.Whole-body dynamic ^(18)F-FDG PET/CT imaging,due to its high sensitivity and specifi-city,can provide comprehensive information on tumor metabolic activity,which is expected to improve the early diagnosis rate of postoperative recurrent tumors,and provide an important reference for clinical treatment decision-making.METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed on 53 patients with upper digestive tract tumors after operation and systemic dynamic ^(18)F-FDG PET/CT imaging indi-cating abnormal FDG uptake by anastomosis,including 29 cases of gastric cancer and 24 cases of esophageal cancer.According to the follow-up results of gas-troscopy and other imaging examinations before and after PET/CT examination,the patients were divided into an anastomotic recurrence group and anastomotic inflammation group.Patlak multi-parameter analysis software was used to obtain the metabolic rate(MRFDG),volume of distribution maximum(DVmax)of anastomotic lesions,and MRmean and DVmean of normal liver tissue.The lesion/background ratio(LBR)was calculated by dividing the MRFDG and DVmax of the anastomotic lesion by the MRmean and DVmean of the normal liver tissue,respectively,to obtain LBR-MRFDG and LBR-DVmax.An independent sample t test was used for statistical analysis,and a receiver operating characteristic curve was used to analyze the differential diagnostic efficacy of each parameter for anastomotic recurrence and inflammation.RESULTS The dynamic ^(18)F-FDG PET/CT imaging parameters MRFDG,DVmax,LBR-MRFDG,and LBR-DVmax of postoperative anastomotic lesions in gastric cancer and esophageal cancer showed statistically significant differences between the recurrence group and the inflammatory group(P<0.05).The parameter LBR-MRFDG showed good diagnostic efficacy in differentiating anastomotic inflammation from recurrent lesions.In the gastric cancer group,the area under the curve(AUC)value was 0.935(0.778,0.993)when the threshold was 1.83,and in the esophageal cancer group,the AUC value was 1.When 86 is the threshold,the AUC value is 0.927(0.743,0.993).CONCLUSION Whole-body dynamic ^(18)F-FDG PET/CT imaging can accurately differentiate the diagnosis of postoperative anastomotic recurrence and inflammation of gastric cancer and esophageal cancer and has the potential to be an effective monitoring method for patients with upper digestive tract tumors after surgical treatment. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Alveolar soft part sarcoma(ASPS)is an extremely rare malignant sarcoma,accounting for less than 1%of all soft-tissue sarcomas.However,limited information is available on multimodal imaging[computed tomography(CT),magnetic resonance imaging(MRI),and positron emission computed tomography/computed tomography(PET/CT)]of ASPS.CASE SUMMARY This study reports a case of a 35-year-old female patient with ASPS of the left thigh with lung metastasis.The patient presented with a 1-year history of a palpable mass in the lower extremity,which exhibited rapid growth for 3 wk.CT,MRI,and F-deoxyglucose PET/CT examinations were performed.CT showed a slightly hypodense or isodense mass with patchy calcifications.On MRI examination,the mass manifested hyperintensity on T1-weighted,T2-weighted,and diffusion-weighted images with some signal voids.PET/CT images demonstrated an intensely hypermetabolic mass in the left thigh and hypermetabolic nodules in lungs.CONCLUSION ASPS should be considered as a possible diagnosis when a slow-growing mass is detected in the soft tissue of the extremities,with hyperintensity and numerous signal voids on T1-weighted,T2-weighted,and diffusion-weighted images and intense F-deoxyglucose uptake on PET/CT.ASPS can have calcifications on CT. 展开更多

Nowadays,presynaptic dopaminergic positron emission tomography,which assesses deficiencies in dopamine synthesis,storage,and transport,is widely utilized for early diagnosis and differential diagnosis of parkinsonism.This review provides a comprehensive summary of the latest developments in the application of presynaptic dopaminergic positron emission tomography imaging in disorders that manifest parkinsonism.We conducted a thorough literature search using reputable databases such as PubMed and Web of Science.Selection criteria involved identifying peer-reviewed articles published within the last 5 years,with emphasis on their relevance to clinical applications.The findings from these studies highlight that presynaptic dopaminergic positron emission tomography has demonstrated potential not only in diagnosing and differentiating various Parkinsonian conditions but also in assessing disease severity and predicting prognosis.Moreover,when employed in conjunction with other imaging modalities and advanced analytical methods,presynaptic dopaminergic positron emission tomography has been validated as a reliable in vivo biomarker.This validation extends to screening and exploring potential neuropathological mechanisms associated with dopaminergic depletion.In summary,the insights gained from interpreting these studies are crucial for enhancing the effectiveness of preclinical investigations and clinical trials,ultimately advancing toward the goals of neuroregeneration in parkinsonian disorders. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Prostate cancer(PC)is one of the most common malignant tumors in men,and bone metastasis is one of its common complications,which seriously affects the quality of life and prognosis of patients.AIM To investigate the diagnostic value of technetium-99m-methylene diphosphonate(99mTc-MDP)single photon emission computed tomography(SPECT)/CT imaging combined with the serum prostate-specific antigen(PSA)/free PSA ratio for PC bone metastasis(PCBM).METHODS One hundred patients with PC who visited the Hospital of Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2020 to January 2022 were recruited as the experimental(Exp)group,while 30 patients with benign prostatic lesions(BPLs)were recruited as the control(Ctrl)group.All patients underwent 99mTc-MDP SPECT/CT imaging and serum PSA/fPSA testing.The SPECT/CT imaging results and serum PSA/fPSA ratios of patients were analyzed to evaluate their diagnostic values for PCBM.RESULTS The difference in general information of the patients was not obvious,showing comparability.The two methods showed no visible differences in negative predictive value and sensitivity for patients with PCBM,but had great differences in positive predictive value and specificity(P<0.05).The PSA/fPSA ratio of patients with PC in the Exp group was lower than those with BPLs,and patients with PCBM had a much lower PSA/fPSA ratio than those without PC(P<0.05).The results confirmed that the combined use of 99mTc-MDP SPECT/CT imaging and serum PSA/fPSA ratio achieved a detection rate of 95%for PCBM.CONCLUSION The combination of 99mTc-MDP SPECT/CT and PSA/fPSA ratio is accurate and reliable for the diagnosis of PCBM,which provides an important reference for clinical practice. 展开更多

Objectives: The anterolateral thigh (ALT) flap is often considered the workhorse in soft tissue reconstruction of head and neck defects secondary to trauma, infection, or tumor resection. Despite its many advantages, ALT flaps have been criticized due to variability in vasculature, which may result in inadequate or non-existent perforators. This retrospective study aims to investigate the utility and validity of positron emission tomography (PET) scan to identify the location and characteristics of perforators to the ALT flap. Methods: We performed a 10-year retrospective review of ALT flaps at our institution to identify patients with preoperative PET scans available for analysis. Three reviewers (attending physician, fellow, and resident) were asked to identify the number, location, and characteristics (myocutaneous versus septocutaneous) of ALT perforators on imaging, and reviewer agreement was assessed. Results were then compared to available operative data. Results: One hundred twenty-one patients were identified who underwent ALT free flap surgery. Thirty-eight preoperative PET scans were identified for review. At least one perforator was identified in 92.1% of scans. Agreement percentages regarding the number of perforators ranged from 53% - 61% whereas agreement regarding the location of a single perforator ranged from 79% - 90%. However, reviewers did not agree regarding the type of perforator, with agreement ranging from 34% - 53%. Poor agreement was observed when compared to intraoperative data, with the number of perforators ranging from 26% - 34% and the type of perforator 11% - 24%. These findings are likely due to insufficient data available in operative reports. Conclusion: Although initial studies suggest that PET scan shows promising evidence to support the capacity to preoperatively identify ALT perforators, future prospective studies are warranted to fully validate these findings. 展开更多

Image quality in positron emission tomography(PET)is affected by random and scattered coincidences and reconstruction protocols.In this study,we investigated the effects of scattered and random coincidences from outside the field of view(FOV)on PET image quality for different reconstruction protocols.Imaging was performed on the Discovery 690 PET/CT scanner,using experimental configurations including the NEMA phantom(a body phantom,with six spheres of different sizes)with a signal background ratio of 4:1.The NEMA phantom(phantom I)was scanned separately in a one-bed position.To simulate the effect of random and scatter coincidences from outside the FOV,six cylindrical phantoms with various diameters were added to the NEMA phantom(phantom II).The 18 emission datasets with mean intervals of 15 min were acquired(3 min/scan).The emission data were reconstructed using different techniques.The image quality parameters were evaluated by both phantoms.Variations in the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)in a 28-mm(10-mm)sphere of phantom II were 37.9%(86.5%)for ordered-subset expectation maximization(OSEM-only),36.8%(81.5%)for point spread function(PSF),32.7%(80.7%)for time of flight(TOF),and 31.5%(77.8%)for OSEM+PSF+TOF,respectively,indicating that OSEM+PSF+TOF reconstruction had the lowest noise levels and lowest coefficient of variation(COV)values.Random and scatter coincidences from outside the FOV induced lower SNR,lower contrast,and higher COV values,indicating image deterioration and significantly impacting smaller sphere sizes.Amongst reconstruction protocols,OSEM+PSF+TOF and OSEM+PSF showed higher contrast values for sphere sizes of 22,28,and 37 mm and higher contrast recovery coefficient values for smaller sphere sizes of 10 and 13 mm. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Diagnosis of prosthetic vascular graft infection with[(18)F]fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography(18F-FDG PET/CT)allows for early detection of functional changes associated with infection,based on increased glucose utilization by activated macrophages and granulocytes.Aseptic vascular grafts,like all foreign bodies,can stimulate an inflammatory response,which can present as increased activity on 18F-FDG PET/CT.Consequently,distinguishing aseptic inflammation from graft infection,though important,can be difficult.In the case of endovascular aneurysm repair(EVAR),a minimally invasive procedure involving the transfemoral insertion of an endoprosthetic stent graft,the normal postoperative appearance of these grafts on 18F-FDG PET/CT can vary over time,potentially confounding study interpretation.AIM To investigate the visual,semiquantitative,and temporal characteristics of aseptic vascular grafts in patients status post EVAR.METHODS In this observational retrospective cohort study,patients with history of EVAR who underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT for indications other than infection were identified retrospectively.All patients were asymptomatic for graft infection-no abdominal pain,fever of unknown origin,sepsis,or leukocytosis-at the time of imaging and for≥2 mo after each PET/CT.Imaging studies such as CT for each patient were also reviewed,and any patients with suspected or confirmed vascular graft infection were excluded.One hundred two scans performed on 43 patients(34 males;9 females;age=77±8 years at the time of the final PET/CT)were retrospectively reviewed.All 43 patients had an abdominal aortic(AA)vascular graft,40 patients had a right iliac(RI)limb graft,and 41 patients had a left iliac(LI)limb graft.Twentytwo patients had 1 PET/CT and 21 patients had from 2 to 9 PET/CTs.Grafts were imaged between 2 mo to 168 mo(about 14 years)post placement.Eight grafts were imaged within 6 mo of placement,including three that were imaged within three months of placement.The mean interval between graft placement and PET/CT for all 102 scans was 51±39 mo.PET/CT data was reconstructed with region-of-interest analysis of proximal,mid and distal portions of the grafts and background ascending aorta.Maximum standardized uptake value(SUVmax)was recorded for each region.SUVmax-to-background uptake ratios(URs)were calculated.Visual assessment was performed using a 2-pattern grading scale:Diffuse(homogeneous uptake less than liver uptake)and focal(one or more areas of focal uptake in any part of the graft).Statistical analysis was performed.RESULTS In total,there were 306 AA grafts,285 LI grafts,282 RI grafts,and 306 ascending aorta background SUVmax measurements.For all 102 scans,mean SUVmax values for AA grafts were 2.8-3.0 along proximal,mid,and distal segments.Mean SUVmax values for LI grafts and RI grafts were 2.7-2.8.Mean SUVmax values for background were 2.5±0.5.Mean URs were 1.1-1.2.Visual analysis of the scans reflected results of quantitative analysis.On visual inspection,98%revealed diffuse,homogeneous 18F-FDG uptake less than liver.Graft URs and visual pattern categories were significantly associated for AA graft URs(F-ratio=21.5,P<0.001),LI graft URs(F-ratio=20.4,P<0.001),and RI graft URs(F-ratio=30.4,P<0.001).Thus,visual patterns of 18F-FDG uptake corresponded statistically significantly to semiquantitative URs.The age of grafts showing focal patterns was greater than grafts showing diffuse patterns,87±89 vs 50±37 mo,respectively(P=0.02).URs were significantly associated with graft age for AA grafts(r=0.19,P=0.001).URs were also significantly associated with graft age for LI grafts(r=0.25,P<0.0001),and RI grafts(r=0.31,P<0.001).Quartiles of similar numbers of graft(n=25-27)grouped by graft age indicated that URs were significantly higher for 4th quartile vs 2nd quartile URs(F-ratio=19.5,P<0.001).When evaluating URs,graft SUVmax values within 10%-20%of the ascending aorta SUVmax is evident in aseptic grafts,except for grafts in the oldest quartiles.In this study,grafts in the oldest quartiles(>7 years post EVAR)showed SUVmax up to 30%higher than the ascending aorta SUVmax.CONCLUSION Characteristics of an aseptic vascular stent graft in the aorta and iliac vessels on 18F-FDG PET/CT include graft SUVmax values within 10%-20%of the ascending aorta background SUVmax.The SUVmax of older aseptic grafts can be as much as 30%above background.The visual uptake pattern of diffuse,homogeneous uptake less than liver was seen in 98%of aseptic vascular grafts,making this pattern particularly reassuring for clinicians. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors(NETs)account for about 1%–2%of pancreatic tumors and about 8%of all NETs.Computed tomography(CT),magnetic resonance imaging,and endoscopic ultrasound are common imaging modalities for the diagnosis of pancreatic NETs.Furthermore,somatostatin receptor imaging is of great value for diagnosing pancreatic NETs.Herein,we report the efficacy of technetium-99m methoxy-2-isobutylisonitrile(99mTc-MIBI)single photon emission CT(SPECT)/CT for detecting pancreatic NETs.CASE SUMMARY A 57-year-old woman presented to our hospital with a 1-d history of persistent upper abdominal distending pain.The distending pain in the upper abdomen was aggravated after eating,with nausea and retching.Routine blood test results showed a high neutrophil percentage,low leukomonocyte and monocyte percentages,and low leukomonocyte and eosinophil counts.Amylase,liver and kidney function,and tumor markers alpha-fetoprotein,carcinoembryonic antigen,and cancer antigen(CA)125,CA72-4,CA19-9,and CA153 were normal.Abdominal CT showed a mass,with multiple calcifications between the pancreas and the spleen.The boundary between the mass and the pancreas and spleen was poorly defined.Contrast-enhanced CT revealed that the upper abdominal mass was unevenly and gradually enhanced.99mTc-MIBI SPECT/CT revealed that a focal radioactive concentration,with mild radioactive concentration extending into the upper abdominal mass,was present at the pancreatic body and tail.The 99mTc-MIBI SPECT/CT manifestations were consistent with the final pathological diagnosis of pancreatic NET.CONCLUSION 99mTc-MIBI SPECT/CT appears to be a valuable tool for detecting pancreatic NETs. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Primary aortoduodenal fistula is a rare cause of gastrointestinal(GI)bleeding consisting of abnormal channels between the aorta and GI tract without previous vascular intervention that results in massive intraluminal hemorrhage.CASE SUMMARY A 67-year-old man was hospitalized for coffee ground vomiting,tarry stools,and colic abdominal pain.He was repeatedly admitted for active GI bleeding and hypovolemic shock.Intermittent and spontaneously stopped bleeders were undetectable on multiple GI endoscopy,angiography,computed tomography angiography(CTA),capsule endoscopy,and ^(99)mTc-labeled red blood cell(RBC)scans.The patient received supportive treatment and was discharged without signs of rebleeding.Thereafter,he was re-admitted for bleeder identification.Repeated CTA after a bleed revealed a small aortic aneurysm at the renal level contacting the fourth portion of the duodenum.A ^(99)mTc-labeled RBC singlephoton emission CT(SPECT)/CT scan performed during bleeding symptoms revealed active bleeding at the duodenal level.According to his clinical symptoms(intermittent massive GI bleeding with hypovolemic shock,dizziness,dark red stool,and bloody vomitus)and the abdominal CTA and ^(99)mTc-labeled RBC SPECT/CT results,we suspected a small aneurysm and an aortoduodenal fistula.Subsequent duodenal excision and duodenojejunal anastomosis were performed.A 7-mm saccular aneurysm arising from the anterior wall of the abdominal aorta near the left renal artery was identified.Percutaneous intravascular stenting of the abdominal aorta was performed and his symptoms improved.CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that ^(99)mTc-labeled RBC SPECT/CT scanning can aid the diagnosis of a rare cause of active GI bleeding. 展开更多

AIM To compare ^(18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography(^(18)F-FDG PET/CT) features in gastric lymphoma and gastric carcinoma.METHODS Patients with newly diagnosed gastric lymphoma or gastric carcinoma who underwent ^(18)F-FDG PET/CT prior to treatment were included in this study. We reviewed and analyzed the PET/CT features of gastric wall lesions,including FDG avidity,pattern(focal/diffuse),and intensity [maximal standard uptake value:(SUVmax)]. The correlation of SUVmax with gastricclinicopathological variables was investigated by χ~2 test,and receiver-operating characteristic(ROC) curve analysis was performed to determine the differential diagnostic value of SUVmax-associated parameters in gastric lymphoma and gastric carcinoma. RESULTS Fifty-two patients with gastric lymphoma and 73 with gastric carcinoma were included in this study. Abnormal gastric FDG accumulation was found in 49 patients(94.23%) with gastric lymphoma and 65 patients(89.04%) with gastric carcinoma. Gastric lymphoma patients predominantly presented with type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ lesions,whereas gastric carcinoma patients mainly had type Ⅲ lesions. The SUVmax(13.39 ± 9.24 vs 8.35 ± 5.80,P < 0.001) and SUVmax/THKmax(maximal thickness)(7.96 ± 4.02 vs 4.88 ± 3.32,P < 0.001) were both higher in patients with gastric lymphoma compared with gastric carcinoma. ROC curve analysis suggested a better performance of SUVmax/THKmax in the evaluation of gastric lesions between gastric lymphoma and gastric carcinoma in comparison with that of SUVmax alone.CONCLUSION PET/CT features differ between gastric lymphoma and carcinoma,which can improve PET/CT evaluation of gastric wall lesions and help differentiate gastric lymphoma from gastric carcinoma. 展开更多

A 41-year old female with metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumor was referred to 18F-FDG-positron emission tomography and computed tomography (PET/CT) scan before and after one-month treatment with imatinib (Glivec, Gleevec, Novartis, Basel, Switzerland), a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (400 mg/d). Metabolic response was evaluated before and after one month of therapy. The decrease of the maximum standardised uptake value (SUV) was 79% (from 9.8 to 2.1). Positron emission tomography demonstrated complete metabolic response after one-month of imatinib treatment. Additionally, the previous lesion was compared with the coronal computerized tomographic image. There was no difference in the size of the tumor before and after therapy according to CT images. However, metabolic activity was inhibited. 18F-FDG-PEr is a valuable method for the detection of response to one-month imatinib treatment in patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors. 展开更多

AIM To investigate the impact of endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration(EUS-FNA) and positron emission tomography-computed tomography(PET-CT) in the nodal staging of upper gastrointestinal(GI) cancer in a tertiary referral centre.METHODS We performed a retrospective review of prospectively recorded data held on all patients with a diagnosis of upper GI cancer made between January 2009 and December 2015. Only those patients who had both a PET-CT and EUS with FNA sampling of a mediastinal node distant from the primary tumour were included. Using a positive EUS-FNA result as the gold standard for lymph node involvement, the sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values(PPV and NPV) and accuracy of PET-CT in the staging of mediastinal lymph nodes were calculated. The impact on therapeutic strategy of adding EUS-FNA to PET-CT was assessed.RESULTS One hundred and twenty one patients were included. Sixty nine patients had a diagnosis of oesophageal adenocarcinoma(Thirty one of whom were junctional), forty eight had oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma and four had gastric adenocarcinoma. The FNA results were inadequate in eleven cases and the PET-CT findings were indeterminate in two cases, therefore thirteen patients(10.7%) were excluded from further analysis. There was concordance between PET-CT and EUS-FNA findings in seventy one of the remaining one hundred and eight patients(65.7%). The sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV values of PET-CT were 92.5%, 50%, 52.1% and 91.9% respectively. There was discordance between PET-CT and EUS-FNA findings in thirty seven out of one hundred and eight patients(34.3%). MDT discussion led to a radical treatment pathway in twenty seven of these cases, after the final tumour stage was altered as a direct consequence of the EUS-FNA findings. Of these patients, fourteen(51.9%) experienced clinical remission of a median of nine months(range three to forty two months). CONCLUSION EUS-FNA leads to altered staging of upper GI cancer, resulting in more patients receiving radical treatment that would have been the case using PET-CT staging alone. 展开更多

AIM To clarify clinicopathological features of ductal carcinoma in situ(DCIS) visualized on [F-18] fluorodeoxyglucosepositron emission tomography/computed tomography(FDG-PET/CT).METHODS This study retrospectively reviewed 52 consecutive tumors in 50 patients with pathologically proven pure DCIS who underwent [F-18] FDG-PET/CT before surgery. [F-18] FDG-PET/CT was performed after biopsy in all patients. The mean interval from biopsy to [F-18] FDGPET/CT was 29.2 d. [F-18] FDG uptake by visual analysis and maximum standardized uptake value(SUVmax) was compared with clinicopathological characteristics.RESULTS[F-18] FDG uptake was visualized in 28 lesions(53.8%) and the mean and standard deviation of SUVmax was 1.63 and 0.90. On univariate analysis, visual analysis and the SUVmax were associated with symptomatic presentation(P = 0.012 and 0.002, respectively), palpability(P = 0.030 and 0.024, respectively), use of core-needle biopsy(CNB)(P = 0.023 and 0.012, respectively), ultrasound-guided biopsy(P = 0.040 and 0.006, respectively), enhancing lesion ≥ 20 mm on magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)(P = 0.001 and 0.010, respectively), tumor size ≥ 20 mm on histopathology(P = 0.002 and 0.008, respectively). However, [F-18] FDG uptake parameters were not significantly associated with age, presence of calcification on mammography, mass formation on MRI, presence of comedo necrosis, hormone status(estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2), and nuclear grade. The factors significantly associated with visual analysis and SUVmax were symptomatic presentation(P = 0.019 and 0.001, respectively), use of CNB(P = 0.001 and 0.031, respectively), and enhancing lesion ≥ 20 mm on MRI(P = 0.001 and 0.049, respectively) on multivariate analysis.CONCLUSION Although DCIS of breast is generally non-avid tumor, symptomatic and large tumors(≥ 20 mm) tend to be visualized on [F-18] FDG-PET/CT. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Lymph node(LN)metastasis is an important prognostic factor in patients with gastric cancer(GC).However,the evaluation of LN metastasis status in the preoperative setting is not accurate.Therefore,precise preoperative prediction of LN metastasis status is crucial for optimal treatment in patients with GC.AIM To develop a preoperative nomogram for LN metastasis using F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose(F-18 FDG)positron emission tomography/computed tomography(PET/CT)and preoperative laboratory test findings in GC.METHODS In this study,the data of 566 GC patients who underwent preoperative F-18 FDG PET/CT and subsequent surgical resection were analyzed.The LN metastasis prediction model was developed in the training cohort and validated in the internal validation cohort.Routine preoperative laboratory tests,including albumin and carbohydrate antigen(CA)19-9 were performed in all patients.Univariate and multivariable logistic regression was performed to validate the preoperative predictive indicators for LN metastasis.RESULTS Of the 566 patients,232(41%)had confirmed histopathologic LN metastasis.Univariate logistic regression revealed that the tumor location,blood hemoglobin,serum albumin levels,neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio,platelet to lymphocyte ratio,CA 19-9,maximum standardized uptake value(SUVmax)of the primary tumor(T_SUVmax),and SUVmax of LN(N_SUVmax)were significantly associated with LN metastasis.In multivariate analysis,T_SUVmax(OR=1.08;95%CI:1.02–1.15;P=0.011)and N_SUVmax(OR=1.49;95%CI:1.19–1.97;P=0.002)were found to be significant predictive factors for LNmetastasis.The LN metastasis prediction model using T_SUVmax,N_SUVmax,serum albumin,and CA 19-9 yielded an area under the curve(AUC)of 0.733(95%CI:0.683–0.784,P=0.025)in the training cohort and AUC of 0.756(95%CI:0.678–0.833,P<0.001)in the test cohort.CONCLUSION T_SUVmax and N_SUVmax measured by preoperative F-18 FDG PET/CT are independent predictive factors for LN metastasis in GC. 展开更多

AIM To determine the significance and need for investigation of incidental prostatic uptake in men undergoing ^(18)F-labelled fluorodeoxyglucose(^(18)F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography(PET/CT) for other indications.METHODS Hospital databases were searched over a 5-year period for patients undergoing both PET/CT and prostate magnetic resonance imaging(MRI). For the initial analysis, the prostate was divided into six sectors and suspicious or malignant sectors were identified using MRI and histopathology reports respectively. Maximum and mean ^(18)F-FDG standardised uptake values were measured in each sector by an investigator blinded to the MRI and histopathology findings. Two agematched controls were selected per case. Results were analysed using a paired t-test and one-way ANOVA. For the second analysis, PET/CT reports were searched for prostatic uptake reported incidentally and these patients were followed up. RESULTS Over a 5-year period, 15 patients underwent both PET/CT and MRI and had biopsy-proven prostate cancer.Malignant prostatic sectors had a trend to higher ^(18)F-FDG uptake than benign sectors, however this was neither clinically nor statistically significant(3.13 ±0.58 vs 2.86 ± 0.68, P > 0.05). ^(18)F-FDG uptake showed no correlation with the presence or histopathological grade of tumour. ^(18)F-FDG uptake in cases with prostate cancer was comparable to that from age-matched controls. Forty-six(1.6%) of 2846 PET/CTs over a 5-year period reported incidental prostatic uptake. Of these, 18(0.6%) were investigated by PSA, 9(0.3%)were referred to urology, with 3(0.1%) undergoing MRI and/or biopsy. No cases of prostate cancer were diagnosed in patients with incidental ^(18)F-FDG uptake in our institute over a 5-year period.CONCLUSION ^(18)F-FDG uptake overlaps significantly between malignant and benign prostatic conditions. Subsequent patient management was not affected by the reporting of incidental focal prostatic uptake in this cohort. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Accurate delineation of the target area for patients with hypopharyngeal cancer is the key to achieving an ideal radiotherapy effect.Since computed tomography(CT)alone can no longer meet the treatment needs,fusing CT images with magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)or positron emission tomography(PET)images can overcome the disadvantages of CT.Herein,we present a clinical case of hypopharyngeal cancer to delineate the tumor volume using combined MRI-CT and PET-CT fusion images to examine if they could accurately cover the tumor volume.CASE SUMMARY A 67-year-old male patient with hypopharyngeal carcinoma could not tolerate chemotherapy and surgery due to complicated health issues such as diabetic nephropathy and other underlying diseases.After multidisciplinary consultations,clinicians eventually agreed to undergo radiotherapy to control the progression of his tumor.He was examined by CT,MRI,and 18-fluorodeoxyglucose-PET for treatment planning,and CT images were fused with PET and MRI images while delineating tumor volume.CONCLUSION The image fusion of MRI-CT and PET-CT has both advantages and disadvantages.Compared with CT images alone,the combination of MRI-CT and PET-CT fusion images can precisely cover the gross tumor volume in hypopharyngeal carcinoma and avoid overestimation or incomplete coverage of tumor volume. 展开更多

BACKGROUND: Subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN DBS) for Parkinson's disease (PD) has achieved good effects, but to date the mechanism of STN DBS remains poorly understood STN DBS may increase dopamine levels or metabolic activity of the corpus striatum. OBJECTIVE: To validate the effects of STN DBS on dopamine metabolism and glucose metabolism in the corpus striatum of hemiparkinsonian monkeys using single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and position emission tomography (PET). DESIGN, TIME AND SET'rING: A controlled animal study was performed at the Neurosurgery Laboratory, Changhai Hospital of the Second Military Medical University of Chinese PLA between January 2004 and December 2007. METHODS: Hemiparkinsonism was induced in adult Rhesus Macaque monkeys, which exhibit similar characteristics of PD in humans, through unilateral internal carotid artery infusion of 1-methy-4-phenyl-1, 2, 3, 6-tetrahydropyrindine. Following model establishment, stimulation electrodes were implanted in the right STN, and chronic high-frequency stimulation (60 μs pulse width, 130 Hz frequency, and 1.5-2.0 V pressure) was performed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The changes in dopamine transporter (DAT), D2 receptor (D2R), and glucose metabolism in the corpus striatum following STN DBS were observed using SPECT and PET. RESULTS: SPECT examination showed that DAT specific binding in the right corpus striatum was increased at 3 months after DBS compared with prior to stimulation, and D2R specific binding in the right corpus striatum gradually decreased near levels on the left (non-electrode-implanted) side within 3 months after DBS. PET examination showed that the glucose metabolism in the right corpus striatum was markedly increased at 3 months after effective DBS. Hemiparkinsonism monkeys showed improved left limb rigidity, increased activities, and stable gait under chronic high-frequency stimulation. CONCLUSION: STN DBS increased striatal DAT, decreased D2R, and enhanced glucose metabolism, suggesting that chronic, high-frequency STN stimulation enhanced the metabolic activity of the corpus striatum, a mechanism for improving the PD symptoms of hemiparkinsonian monkeys. 展开更多
