Quantitation of glucose uptake in tumors by dynamic FDG-PET has less glucose bias and lower variability when adjusted for partial saturation of glucose transport

BACKGROUND: A retrospective analysis of estimates of tumor glucose uptake from 1,192 dynamic 2-deoxy-2-((18)F)fluoro-D-glucose-positron-emission tomography [FDG-PET] scans showed strong correlations between blood glucose and both the uptake rate constant [K(i)] and the metabolic rate of glucose [MRG...
