Sentence examples for assessment of uptake from inspiring English sources

El Naqa et al. performed a one-dimensional assessment of uptake variation by forming what they called an intensity-volume histogram [21].

Acquired SPECT/CT images were exported to an XD3 workstation (Mirada, Oxford, UK) and analyzed by experienced nuclear medicine readers (LBS and MSJ) to arrive at a qualitative assessment of uptake within each tumor (i.e., "hot" or "cold") as well as a ratio of maximum uptake in the tumor relative to the maximum uptake in the ipsilateral normal renal parenchyma.

The means of assessment of uptake of IPTp has varied across studies and disaggregation by presence or absence of symptomatic malaria has not been standard practice.

The same problem was previously identified by other research groups [ 2, 15], and the descriptive assessment of uptake patterns was therefore introduced to improve selectivity.

For the pre-chemotherapy PET, a quantitative assessment of FDG uptake was made by calculating the maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax) in a region of interest within the nodal or extranodal site showing the highest intensity of FDG uptake.

Visual assessment of tracer uptake in the 60-min scans showed no substantial differences in uptake over time after the first 30 min (Fig.  2).

Assessment of FDG uptake was made visually, comparing PET/CT studies of the same patient, considering the visual increasing or decreasing FDG uptake in the lesions together with RECIST morphological criteria of response.
