TL;DR: It is demonstrated that MCL is an FDG-avid lymphoma and 18F-FDG-PET/CT is a useful tool for staging purpose, showing good specificity for BM and GI evaluation, but suboptimal sensitivity.
The Utility of Conventional Amino Acid PET Radiotracers in the Evaluation of Glioma Recurrence also in Comparison with MRI
Giulia Santo,Riccardo Laudicella,Flavia Linguanti,Anna Nappi,Elisabetta Abenavoli,Vittoria Vergura,Giuseppe Rubini,Roberto Sciagrà,Gaspare Arnone,Orazio Schillaci,Fabio Minutoli,Sergio Baldari,Natale Quartuccio,Sotirios Bisdas +13 more
TL;DR: An update on the most relevant studies evaluating the utility of amino acid PET radiotracers for the evaluation of glioma recurrence as compared to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), where MET–PET seems to present the highest diagnostic value but its use is limited to on-site cyclotron facilities.
