To assess the characteristics of [(18)F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose (FDG) uptake in cases of ovarian metastasis using positron-emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT).
Twelve patients with 16 ovarian metastases arising from colon cancer (n=6), breast cancer (n=4), gastric cancer (n=3), and pancreatic cancer (n=3) who underwent FDG-PET/CT exa...
The purpose of this study was to investigate the accuracy of a quantitative method for estimating arterial hepatic blood flow and portal hepatic blood flow separately using a dual-input single-compartment model compared with the maximum slope method using computer simulations and clinical data. In computer simulations, the rate constants for the tr...

... PET-CT scanning has been shown to have higher sensitivity for the detection of lung and bone metastases reported as high as 100% [28]. PET-CT also has the advantage because of being a whole body scan of being able to detect metastases in unusual sites and those where MDCT is less able to be dogmatic such as the ovarian and peritoneum particularly for the latter where there has been previous abdominal surgery [29]. However, when it comes to detecting liver metastasis, PET-CT has been found to have a very variable sensitivity with reported rates ranging from 22-88% [26, 28, 30, 34]. ...
... In this study, a digital liver phantom was constructed based on DCE-CT images acquired from a 71-year-old female patient according to the following protocol: 35 solid line in Figure 2 shows an example of C L (t) with K 1a = 20 mL/100mL/min, K 1p = 80 mL/100mL/min, k 2 = 4 min −1 , and τ a =τ p = 0 s. The pixel intensity of the digital liver phantom was in Hounsfield unit (HU). ...
