Assessment of intratumor hypoxia by integrated (18)F-FDG PET / perfusion CT in a liver tumor model

OBJECTIVES: Hypoxia in solid tumors occurs when metabolic demands in tumor cells surpass the delivery of oxygenated blood. We hypothesize that the (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose ((18)F-FDG) metabolism and tumor blood flow mismatch would correlate with tumor hypoxia. METHODS: Liver perfusion computed tomog...
