Focal uptake on 18F-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography images indicates cardiac involvement of sarcoidosis
Shinji Ishimaru,Ichizo Tsujino,Toshiki Takei,Eriko Tsukamoto,Shinji Sakaue,Mitsunori Kamigaki,Naofumi Ito,Hiroshi Ohira,Daisuke Ikeda,Nagara Tamaki,Masaharu Nishimura +10 more
TL;DR: F-FDG PET has the potential to detect cardiac sarcoidosis that cannot be diagnosed by (67)Ga or (99m)Tc-MIBI scintigraphy.

FDG Uptake and Glucose Transporter Subtype Expressions in Experimental Tumor and Inflammation Models
Takafumi Mochizuki,Eriko Tsukamoto,Yuji Kuge,Kakuko Kanegae,S. Zhao,Kenji Hikosaka,Masuo Hosokawa,Masashi Kohanawa,Nagara Tamaki +8 more
TL;DR: The results based on models showed a high FDG uptake and high GLUT-1 expression level not only in the tumor lesion but also in the inflammatory lesion.

Myocardial imaging with 18F-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance imaging in sarcoidosis
Hiroshi Ohira,Ichizo Tsujino,Shinji Ishimaru,Noriko Oyama,Toshiki Takei,Eriko Tsukamoto,Masatake Miura,Shinji Sakaue,Nagara Tamaki,Masaharu Nishimura +9 more
TL;DR: Both 18F-FDG PET and MRI provided high sensitivity for diagnosing cardiac sarcoidosis in patients with suspected cardiac involvement, but the specificity of18F- FDG PET was not as high as previously reported.

Cardiac Functional Analysis with Multi–Detector Row CT and Segmental Reconstruction Algorithm: Comparison with Echocardiography, SPECT, and MR Imaging
Masaki Yamamuro,Eiji Tadamura,Shigeto Kubo,Hiroshi Toyoda,Takeshi Nishina,Muneo Ohba,Ryohei Hosokawa,Takeshi Kimura,Nagara Tamaki,Masashi Komeda,Toru Kita,Junji Konishi +11 more
TL;DR: Function analysis with multi-detector row CT was more accurate than that with two-dimensional echocardiography or ECG-gated SPECT and segmental reconstruction algorithm over a range of heart rates.

Quantitative cerebral blood flow measurement with dynamic perfusion CT using the vascular-pixel elimination method: comparison with H2(15)O positron emission tomography.
Kohsuke Kudo,Satoshi Terae,Chietsugu Katoh,Masaki Oka,Tohru Shiga,Nagara Tamaki,Kazuo Miyasaka +6 more
TL;DR: Vascular pixels should be excluded from the calculation of CT-CBF to avoid overestimation of the CBF values, and if vascular pixels are excluded, CBF calculation with CT perfusion imaging is considerably accurate.
