Purpose The main objective was to characterize the tracer uptake kinetics of [18 F]
fluoromethylcholine ([18 F] F-CHO) in high-grade gliomas (HGG) through a full PET kinetic …

Objectives O-(2-18 F-fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine (18 F-FET) is an established tracer for brain
tumour imaging. 18 F-FET kinetics in gliomas appear to have potential for tumour grading …

Purpose To determine the optimal timing for imaging brain tumours and other brain lesions
with 18 F-labelled fluoromethylcholine (18 F-FCho) PET. Materials and methods Dynamic …

Primary brain tumors (PBT), in particular gliomas, are among the most difficult neoplasms to
treat, necessitating good quality imaging to guide clinicians at many junctures. Current …

Purpose Compartmental modelling of 3′-deoxy-3′-[18 F]-fluorothymidine (18 F-FLT) PET-
derived kinetics provides a method for noninvasive assessment of the proliferation rate of …

Abstract This Practice Point commentary discusses a study by Kato et al. that assessed the
usefulness of three PET tracers—11C-methionine (MET), 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose, and 11C …

Background This study identified the optimal tracer kinetic model for quantification of
dynamic O-(2-[18 F] fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine ([18 F] FET) positron emission tomography (PET) …

Introduction The positron emission tomography (PET) tracers 18 F-fluoro-ethyl-L-tyrosine
(FET), 18 F-fluorocholine (N, N-dimethyl-N-[18 F] fluoromethyl-2-hydroxyethylammonium …

307 Objectives: PET-imaging with O-(2-[18 F] fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine (FET) allows not only an
improved delineation of cerebral glioma, but also tumor grading based on FET kinetics. Low …

Background: Reprogrammed cellular metabolism is a cancer hallmark. In addition to
increased glycolysis, the oxidation of acetate in the citric acid cycle is another common …
