7 paź 2023 · The standardized uptake value (SUV) applies to PET imaging of tumors and typically uses the radioligand F 18-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG). The concentration of F 18 activity reflects glucose metabolism which is increased in tumor cells and inflammation.
17 cze 2024 · Standardized uptake value (SUV) numbers are a component of reading PET scans and can dictate cancer treatment decisions. Seth Gammon, Ph.D., and Lesley Flynt, M.D., share how oncologists use these numbers and what they mean for cancer patients.
Table 2 provides an overview of published recommendations or guidelines for 18 F-FDG PET or PET/CT. To my knowledge, Table 2 lists articles with detailed and comprehensive recommendations or guidelines for performing and analyzing 18 F-FDG PET studies.
1 wrz 2004 · The authors discuss 9 classes of analytic methods suitable for PET image analysis. These, including the SUV class, have subclasses. For the SUV, these subclasses have historically arisen out of a motivation to seek refinements in determinations that can reduce variability from method variations.
18 paź 2016 · Since some disease processes can have extremely high SUV values, it may be necessary to increase the upper threshold to appreciate the dynamic range of glycolytic activity. This is particularly important in diseases where there can be considerable heterogeneity in disease.
2 lip 2020 · Standardized uptake value (SUV) is an important semiquantitative PET measurement used in clinical and research domains to assess radiopharmaceutical concentration in tumors versus normal organs. Its maximum value in a tumor volume of interest (SUV max) is commonly used in clinical settings (5–10).
1 maj 2019 · As of June 1st 2016, 68Ga-DOTA-TATE PET/CT is approved by the FDA as the imaging standard of reference for management of the well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), providing greater accuracy in disease detection and characterization when compared with conventional imaging modalities.
