Implications of Ambient Glucose Variation on the Target-to-Background Ratio of Hepatic Tumors By (18)FDG-PET Imaging

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the effects of ambient glucose on quantitative analysis of hepatic tumors on 2-deoxy-2-((18)F)-fluoro-D-glucose ((18)FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) and to establish a method for glucose correction. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Eighty-six patients with hepatic lesions ide...
