Evaluation of (18)F-fluorothymidine positron emission tomography ([(18)F]FLT-PET/CT) methodology in assessing early response to chemotherapy in patients with gastro-oesophageal cancer

BACKGROUND: 3’-Deoxy-3’-[(18)F]fluorothymidine ([(18)F]FLT) PET has limited utility in abdominal imaging due to high physiological hepatic uptake of a tracer. We evaluated [(18)F]FLT-PET/CT combined with a temporal-intensity information-based voxel-clustering approach termed kinetic spatial filterin...
