Attenuation correction is one of the most important steps in producing quantitative PET image data. In hybrid PET-MRI systems, this correction is far from trivial, as MRI data are not correlated to PET attenuation properties of the scanned object. Commercially available systems often employ correction schemes based on segmenting the body into different tissue classes (air, lung tissue, fat-, and w...... hiện toàn bộ
AI-based quantification of whole-body tumour burden on somatostatin receptor PET/CTEuropean Journal of Hybrid Imaging - Tập 7 - Trang 1-16 - 2023

Segmenting the whole-body somatostatin receptor-expressing tumour volume (SRETVwb) on positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) images is highly time-consuming but has shown value as an independent prognostic factor for survival. An automatic method to measure SRETVwb could improve disease status assessment and provide a tool for prognostication. This study aimed to develop an arti...... hiện toàn bộ
Assessment of the kidney function parameters split function, mean transit time, and outflow efficiency using dynamic FDG-PET/MRI in healthy subjectsEuropean Journal of Hybrid Imaging - Tập 3 - Trang 1-12 - 2019

Traditionally, isotope nephrography is considered as the method of choice to assess kidney function parameters in nuclear medicine. We propose a novel approach to determine the split function (SF), mean transit time (MTT), and outflow efficiency (OE) with 2-deoxy-2-[18F]fluoro-D-glucose (FDG) dynamic positron emission tomography (PET). Healthy adult subjects underwent dynamic simultaneous FDG-PET ...... hiện toàn bộ
Clinical impact of 99mTc-MAA SPECT/CT-based personalized predictive dosimetry in selective internal radiotherapy: a real-life single-center experience in unresectable HCC patientsEuropean Journal of Hybrid Imaging - Tập 7 - Trang 1-18 - 2023

Recent data demonstrated that personalized dosimetry-based selective internal radiotherapy (SIRT) is associated with better outcome for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
We aim to evaluate the contribution of personalized predictive dosimetry (performed with Simplicity90® software) in our population of HCC patients by comparing them to our historical cohort whose activity was determine...... hiện toàn bộ
Impact of metal implants on xSPECT/CT Bone reconstruction: the “shining metal artefact”European Journal of Hybrid Imaging - Tập 4 - Trang 1-6 - 2020

Novel reconstruction algorithms, such as xSPECT Bone, are gaining more and more importance in Nuclear Medicine. With xSPECT Bone, the reconstructed emission image is enhanced by the information obtained in the corresponding CT image. The CT defines tissue classes according to the Hounsfield units. In the iterative reconstruction, each tissue class is handled separately in the forward projection st...... hiện toàn bộ
18F-FDG PETCT and 68Ga-DOTA PETCT mismatch with in vivo histopathological characterization of low-grade neuroendocrine pancreatic tumorEuropean Journal of Hybrid Imaging - Tập 5 - Trang 1-6 - 2021

Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (PNET) is a subgroup of neuroendocrine tumor (NET) that has unique biology and natural history. The histological classification has a major role in the management of this pathology, but in recent years Gallium 68 dotatate (68Ga-DOTA) scanning is at the center of a discussion about how these imaging technologies can modify clinical management of neuroendocrine tumors...... hiện toàn bộ
