Value of 18F-FET PET in adult brainstem glioma

Published: Sep 1, 2018
Abstract
To investigate 18F-fluoro-ethyl-tyrosine positron emission tomography (FET-PET) imaging characteristics of adult brainstem glioma (BSG).FET-PET imaging and progression-free survival (PFS) of 16 adult patients with BSG was analyzed (9 high-grade gliomas, 7 low-grade gliomas). SUVmax, TBR, and time activity curves of FET-PET were calculated.Progressive gliomas had higher SUVmax (3.57 ± 1.47 vs. 1.60 ± 0.51; p = 0.003) and TBRmax (3.00 ± 1.12 vs....
