BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: 62Cu-diacetyl-bis (N4-methylthiosemicarbazone) was
developed as a hypoxic radiotracer in PET. We compared imaging features among MR …

Objective The potential of positron emission tomography/computed tomography using 62 Cu-
diacetyl-bis (N 4-methylthiosemicarbazone)(62 Cu-ATSM PET/CT), which was originally …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Hypoxic tissue evaluation in glioma is important for
predicting treatment response and establishing antihypoxia therapy. In this preliminary …

PURPOSE: Our aim was to compare perfusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and
positron emission tomography (PET) using carbon-11 labelled methionine (MET) in gliomas …

Objectives The aim of this study was to clarify the relationship between tumor hypoxia and
microscopic diffusion capacity in primary brain tumors using 62 Cu-Diacetyl-Bis (N4 …

The aim of this study was to compare the grading and prognostic value of l-[methyl-11C]-
methionine (11C-MET) PET in glioma patients with 18F-FDG PET and contrast-enhanced …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Noninvasive radiologic evaluation of glioma can facilitate
correct diagnosis and detection of malignant transformation. Although positron-emission …

Abstract Background 3′-deoxy-3′-[18 F] fluorothymidine (18 F-FLT) has been used to
evaluate tumor malignancy and cell proliferation in human brain gliomas. However, 18 F …

Purpose High-grade gliomas are aggressive primitive brain tumors presenting aberrant
vasculature, regional necrosis, and areas of hypoxia. Tumor hypoxia is associated with …

Object Assessment of hypoxic conditions in brain tumors is important for predicting tumor
aggressiveness and treatment response. A new hypoxia imaging agent, 1-(2-[18 F] fluoro-1 …
