In recent years tomographic hybrid scanners have been quickly introduced in nuclear medicine: single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)-CT and positron emission tomography (PET)-CT.- Both SPECT-CT and PET-CT techniques provide a higher diagnostic accuracy than conventional (non-tomographic, non-hybrid) bone scintigraphy (bone scan).- Differences between 99mTc hydroxymethylene diphosphonate (HDP) SPECT-CT or 99mTc methylene diphosphonate (MDP) SPECT-CT and 18F-fluoride PET-CT bone scanning relate to image quality, technique, availability, quantification possibilities, radiation dosimetry and financial cost.- Indications for these techniques will especially lie in the field of more accurate detection of skeletal metastases than with bone scans, patients with unexplained musculoskeletal pain, the diagnostic stage after conventional X-ray and/or MRI, and quantification of bone metabolism. 相似文献

A Centre for Positron Emission Tomography (PET) has been operational within the Department of Nuclear Medicine at the Austin & Repatriation Medical Centre (A&RMC) in Melbourne for seven years. PET is a non-invasive imaging technique based on the use of biologically relevant compounds labelled with short-lived positron-emitting radionuclides such as carbon-11, nitrogen-13, oxygen-15 and fluorine-18. The basic facility consists of a medical cyclotron (10 MeV proton & 5 MeV deuteron), six lead-shielded hotcells with associated radiochemistry facilities, radiopharmacy and a whole body PET scanner. A strong radiolabelling development program, including the production of 15O-oxygen, 15O-carbon monoxide, 15O-carbon dioxide, 15O-water, 13N-ammonia, 18F-FDG, 18F-FMISO, 11C-SCH23390 and 11C-flumazenil has been pursued to support an ambitious clinical and research program in neurology, oncology, cardiology and psychiatry. 相似文献

Imaging with fluor-18-deoxyglucose(FDG)-positron-emission tomography (PET) and CT combined in a single machine is a recent development. Using this technique both molecular and anatomical information are acquired. This results in an increased sensitivity and specificity in comparison to PET and CT as a single modality. One of the main advantages is that interpretation of PET images can be related to the anatomical information which helps to delineate the size and extent of a tumour as well as its relationship with surrounding tissues. It is also useful in planning surgical treatment and irradiation. At restaging PET-CT delineates the site and extent of a recurrence in the complex anatomy of the head and neck region and helps to define the location of a biopsy. This is particularly valuable in the anatomically complex head and neck region. Whole-body imaging can detect distant metastases and second primary tumours. PET-CT has the potential to become a part of the staging procedure of the primary tumour and also the follow-up in patients who have been treated for head and neck cancer. 相似文献

AIM: The aim of the present study was to assess the accuracy of an hybrid PET/CT scanner in the evaluation of newly diagnosed parotid masses, comparing the results with those reported in the literature with using PET scanners only. METHODS: The potential role of 18F-FDG PET/CT in distinguishing benign from malignant parotid masses in 14 consecutive patients was investigated. All patients were preoperatively evaluated by means of ultrasound (US), US-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) cytology, computed tomography (CT) scan, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and 18F-FDG PET/CT. For To interpreting FDG PET findings, the right to left parotid (R/L) SUV max ratio was calculated in a group of 54 patients without evidence of parotideal disease (mean+/-SD = 1+/-0.2; range = 0.8-1.2); considering the R/L SUV max ratio, focal or diffuse uptakes <0.8 or >1.2 were considered as potentially pathological. RESULTS: Imaging data were compared with surgical and histopathological findings. At FDG PET/CT, 9 false positive cases were found (8 Warthin's tumours, 1 pleomorphic adenoma), 1 false negative (acinar cell carcinoma), 4 true negative (1 Warthin's tumour, 1 pleomorphic adenoma, 1 lymph epithelial cyst, 1 parotid inflammation) whereas there was no case of true positive. The global accuracy of FGD PET/CT was rather low = at 29%. CONCLUSIONS: In agreement with other preliminary reports in which the FDG PET without CT fusion imaging was used, in our experience 18F-FDG PET/CT did not prove to play a significant role in differential diagnosis (benign vs malignant) of parotid masses. Further studies collecting larger groups of patients are needed to further elucidate this observation. 相似文献

目的总结葡萄糖类似物(FDG)PET/CT在胸部肿瘤放疗中应用的初步经验。方法 2009年8月~2011年12月,42例胸部肿瘤患者在我院接受PET/CT(GE Discovery)定位。图像传至VarianEclipse 8.6治疗计划系统进行图像分析处理及治疗计划设计。分析PET/CT图像融合对认定肿瘤靶区范围及对总体放疗方案和治疗计划的影响。结果 42例患者共确诊肿瘤病灶109个,其中,80.7%病灶在CT和PET图像均明确显示;19.3%病灶通过融合PET图像而确诊。融合图像在明确小的转移性淋巴结方面有显著优势。在肺部病灶大小和范围的显示上PET图像与CT图像常有一定差异,可能与呼吸运动或/和化疗影响肿瘤糖代谢有关。通常FDG PET/CT不能有效鉴别肿瘤与合并的炎症和手术创伤。结论 FDG PET/CT应用显著提高了肿瘤的诊断水准,并对放疗方案和治疗计划产生积极影响,但仍需探求排除假阳性信息的有效方法。 相似文献

The combination of positron emission tomography (PET) scanners and x-ray computed tomography (CT) scanners into a single PET/CT scanner has resulted in significant improvements in the diagnosis and staging of disease, particularly in the field of oncology. A decade on from the publication of the details of the first PET/CT scanner, we review the technology and applications of the modality. We examine the design aspects of combining two different imaging types into a single scanner, and the artefacts produced such as attenuation correction, motion and CT truncation artefacts. The article also provides a discussion and literature review of the applications of PET/CT to date, covering detection of tumours, radiotherapy treatment planning, patient management, and applications external to the field of oncology. 相似文献

The next generation of medical imaging scanners includes a combo of positron emission tomography and computed tomography--a hybrid that experts say will revolutionize both the practice and business of cancer treatment through faster and more accurate diagnoses. Accelerating the development of PET-CT machines is HCFA's consideration of expanding Medicare coverage of PET for a larger number of cancers. 相似文献

A retrospective evaluation of radiation dose associated with low dose FDG protocols in whole-body PET/CT 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Willowson KP Bailey EA Bailey DL 《Australasian physical & engineering sciences in medicine / supported by the Australasian College of Physical Scientists in Medicine and the Australasian Association of Physical Sciences in Medicine》2012,35(1):49-53
The objective of the study is to retrospectively measure patient radiation dose resulting from whole body X-ray CT and FDG
PET studies using a low-dose protocol performed on the Siemens Biograph mCT scanner. A total of 483 patient studies were reviewed.
For each, the CT dose-length product was used to estimate radiation dose to the patient as a result of the whole body X-ray
CT component of the PET/CT study. The net injected FDG dose was used to calculate the whole body effective dose based on ICRP
recommendations. Dose calculations were also modified to take into account individual patient weight. The total effective
dose received by each patient was taken as the sum of the PET and CT components of the study. The mean effective dose from
the CT component of the diagnostic study was found to be 8.2 mSv (3.4–23.4 mSv), for a CT protocol of 120 kVp and effective tube current–time product of 80 mAs with automatic exposure control. For an average injected FDG activity of
304 MBq the mean PET effective dose was found to be 6.3 mSv when using the ICRP standard models, or 6.0 mSv when scaling effective
dose to individual patient weight or patient blood volume. The average total effective dose across the entire patient cohort
for a combined PET/CT study was found to be ~14.5 mSv (9.6–29.8 mSv). Low-dose protocols for whole-body PET/CT scanning result
in an effective radiation dose to the patient of approximately 14.5 mSv. Additional reductions through the use of iterative
CT reconstruction and optimized low-dose FDG protocols could see total effective doses for whole-body PET/CT fall to below
10 mSv. 相似文献

Given that the financial cost of shielding PET/CT suites can be substantial, it has become increasingly important to be able to accurately assess the thickness of shielding required for barriers and whether it is necessary to extend such shielding all the way to the ceiling. The overall shielding requirement for a PET/CT installation must take into account both 511 keV gamma ray emissions from PET scans and lower energy x-ray scatter from CT scans. This paper deals with the overall impact of emissions from both modalities. Radiation exposure from both scatter over shielding barriers as well as transmission through these barriers is taken into account. A series of simulations of the dose received by a person positioned behind a shielding barrier in a typical PET/CT scanning suite were carried out using both Monte Carlo and analytical models. The transmission through lead barriers was found to be very dependent on the geometry of the radiation source and the resulting energy spectrum of the emitted radiation. The transmission from a patient source was found to be around half of that from a small vial and also half of that reported previously using parallel beams of mono-energetic radiation. For PET emissions, the dose from scatter over the barrier at waist height is relatively small but may have to be taken into account if the design dose limit is low. Shielding from floor to ceiling is probably not warranted in most instances for PET gamma emissions; in PET/CT installations, however, a thinner layer of shielding may need to extend to the ceiling of the imaging room to limit x-ray scatter over the wall from the CT unit. 相似文献

The number of positron emission tomography (PET) examinations has greatly increased world-wide. Since positron emission nuclides for the PET examinations have short half-lives, they are mainly produced using on-site cyclotrons. During the production of the nuclides, significant quantities of neutrons are generated from the cyclotrons. Neutrons have potential to activate the materials around the cyclotrons and cause exposure to the staff. To investigate quantities and distribution of the thermal neutrons, thermal neutron fluxes were measured around a PET cyclotron in a laboratory associating with a hospital. The cyclotron accelerates protons up to 18 MeV, and the mean particle current is 20 μA. The neutron fluxes were measured during both 18F production and C production. Gold foils and thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) badges were used to measure the neutron fluxes. The neutron fluxes in the target box averaged 9.3 × 10(6) cm(-2) s(-1) and 1.7 × 10(6) cm(-2) s(-1) during 18F and 11C production, respectively. Those in the cyclotron room averaged 4.1 × 10(5) cm(-2) s(-1) and 1.2 × 10(5) cm(-2) s(-1), respectively. Those outside the concrete wall shielding were estimated as being equal to or less than ~3 cm s, which corresponded to 0.1 μSv h(-1) in effective dose. The neutron fluxes outside the concrete shielding were confirmed to be quite low compared to the legal limit. 相似文献

From the beginnings of medical imaging with radioactivity, an account is given of the development in Aberdeen of Computed Tomography (CT) scanners in Nuclear Medicine, and their clinical value, leading to present-day gamma-cameras. The introduction and clinical use of the cyclotron and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imager in Aberdeen, has led to a national programme for the cancer patients in Scotland. Early animal work with electron magnetic resonance, which developed into a programme towards nuclear magnetic resonance of water, and then to a quest to build the first clinically-useful whole-body MRI, is described. Successful diagnostic images obtained with it have led to the present-day worldwide use of the MRI technique. 相似文献
