- چکیده انگلیسی: Objective(s): The aim of the study was to create a local normal database brain template of Thai individuals for 11C-Pittsburgh compound B (11C-PiB) and 18F-THK 5351 depositions using statistical parametric mapping (SPM) software, and to validate and optimize the established specific brain template for use in clinical practice with a highly reliability and reproducibility.
Methods: This prospective study was conducted in 24 healthy right-handed volunteers (13 men, 11 women; aged: 42–79 years) who underwent 18F-THK 5351 and 11C-PiB PET/CT scans. SPM was used for the 18F-THK 5351 and 11C-PiB PET/CT image analysis. All PET images were processed individually using Diffusion Tensor Image -Magnetic Resonance Imaging-weighted images (DTI-MRI images), which involved: (1) conversion of Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) files into an analyzable file extension (.NIFTI) for statistical parametric mapping, (2) setting of the origin (the anterior commissure was used as the anatomical landmark), (3) re-alignment, (4) co-registration of PET with B0 (T1W) and DTI-MRI images, (5) normalization, and (6) normal verification using the Thai MRI standard. We then compared the normal PET template with the abnormal deposition area of different dementia syndromes, including Alzheimer’s disease and progressive supranuclear palsy.
Results: This method was able to differentiate cognitively normal from Alzheimer’s disease and progressive supranuclear palsy subjects.
Conclusions: This normal brain template was able to be integrated into clinical practice and research using PET analyses at our center.- انتشار مقاله: 27-03-1399

- چکیده:
- چکیده انگلیسی: Objective(s): This study aimed to compare the diagnostic values of 11C-choline and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in patients with cholangiocarcinoma (CCA).
Methods: This prospective study was conducted on 10 patients (6 males and 4 females), aged 42-69 years, suspected of having CCA based on CT or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) results. 11C-choline and 18F-FDG PET/CT studies were performed in all patients over 1 week. PET/CT results were visually analyzed by 2 independent nuclear medicine physicians and quantitatively by calculating the tumor-to-background ratio (T/B).
Results: No 11C-choline PET/CT uptake was observed in primary extrahepatic or intrahepatic CCA cases. Intense 18F-FDG avidity was detected in the tumors of 8 patients (%80). Two patients, who were 18F-FDG negative, had primary extrahepatic CCA. Ki-67 measurements were positive in all patients (range; 14.2%-39.9%). The average T/B values of 11C-choline and 18F-FDG were 0.4±0.2 and 2.0±1.0 in all cases of primary CCA, respectively; these values were significantly lower for 11C-choline (P<0.005). Both FDG and 11C-choline PET/CT detected metastatic CCA foci in all 8 patients (two patients had no metastases).
Conclusion: As the results suggested, primary CCA lesions showed a poor avidity for 11C-choline, whereas 18F-FDG PET/CT was of value for the detection of most primary CCA cases. In contrast to primary lesions, metastatic CCA lesions showed 11C-choline avidity.- انتشار مقاله: 29-03-1393
