"This research suggests that PET-CT scanning may provide an answer – identifying 'ticking time bomb' patients at risk of a heart attack.
Positron emission tomography (PET) scanning may provide information on changes in the density and affinity of airway β-adrenoceptors in lung diseases.
Building a common reference model with other techniques, such as 3D scanning, may provide a more accurate estimation of artifact volume.
To add the rest of other body regions to the limited whole body PET/CT scanning may provide more comprehensive data to clinicians.
Nuclear bone scanning may provide earlier functional diagnosis, and can be performed using 99mTc-labelled diphosphonates, suitable for SPECT/CT, or F-fluoride PET.
Although plain radiographs may be sufficient to diagnose this pathology [ 30]; nevertheless, in our opinion, CT scans may provide additional information on the extension of the infectious process and aid in planning a correct therapy.
In conclusion, the findings of this study have demonstrated that addition of the brain to the limited whole body FDG-PET/CT scanning may provide important contributions to the patient's clinical management in patients with lung cancer, bladder cancer, malignant melanoma, breast cancer, stomach cancer, and unknown primary tumor.
This study has demonstrated that addition of the brain to the limited whole body FDG-PET/CT scanning may provide important contributions to the patient's clinical management especially in patients with lung cancer, bladder cancer, malignant melanoma, breast cancer, stomach cancer, and unknown primary tumor.
This analysis with three different scan lengths may provide an understanding of the differences among previously published results of PET/CT ED where different scan lengths have been considered (Table 5).
