Correlation between 18F-1-amino-3-fluorocyclobutane-1-carboxylic acid (18F-fluciclovine) uptake and expression of alanine-serine-cysteine-transporter 2 (ASCT2) and L-type amino acid transporter 1 (LAT1) in primary prostate cancer
<p>Purpose: To evaluate the expression of alanine-serine-cysteine-transporter 2 (ASCT2) and L-type amino acid transporter1 (LAT1) in prostate cancer (PCa) and their impact on uptake of F-18-1-amino-3-fluorocyclobutane-1-carboxylic ...
Estimation of optimal number of gates in dual gated F-18-FDG cardiac PET
Gating of positron emission tomography images has been shown to reduce the motion effects, especially when imaging small targets, such as coronary plaques. However, the selection of optimal number of gates for gating remains ...
Global and segmental absolute stress myocardial blood flow in prediction of cardiac events: [15O] water positron emission tomography study
Purpose We evaluated the value of reduced global and segmental absolute stress myocardial blood flow (sMBF) quantified by [O-15] water positron emission tomography (PET) for predicting cardiac events in patients with ...
Systemic Dosing of Thymosin Beta 4 before and after Ischemia Does Not Attenuate Global Myocardial Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Pigs
The use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and aortic cross-clamping causes myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (I-RI) and can lead to reduced postoperative cardiac function. We investigated whether this injury could be ...
Morbid obesity and type 2 diabetes alter intestinal fatty acid uptake and blood flow
<p>Aims: Bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment to tackle morbid obesity and type 2 diabetes, but the mechanisms of action are still unclear. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of bariatric ...
Prospective comparison of 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT, whole-body MRI and CT in primary nodal staging of unfavourable intermediate- and high-risk prostate cancer
<div><b>Purpose</b> To prospectively compare F-18-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-1007 positron emission tomography (PET)/CT, whole-body magnetic resonance imaging (WBMRI) including diffusion-weighted imaging ...
Brain free fatty acid uptake is elevated in morbid obesity, and is irreversible 6 months after bariatric surgery: A positron emission tomography study
<h3>Aim</h3><p>To investigate whether there are differences in brain fatty acid uptake (BFAU) between morbidly obese and lean subjects, and the effect of weight loss following bariatric surgery.</p><h3>Materials and ...
Long-term Results of Microvascular Lymph Node Transfer: Correlation of Preoperative Factors and Operation Outcome
<p>Background: Our objective was to analyze whether a correlation could be observed between preoperative factors and microvascular lymph node transfer outcome after long-term follow-up.<br></p><p>Methods: We included 67 ...
Effects of meal and incretins in the regulation of splanchnic blood flow
Objective: Meal ingestion is followed by a redistribution of blood flow (BF) within the splanchnic region contributing to nutrient absorption, insulin secretion and glucose disposal, but factors regulating this phenomenon ...
Physical Activity Associates with Muscle Insulin Sensitivity Postbariatric Surgery
Purpose<p>Bariatric surgery is considered as an effective therapeutic strategy for weight loss in severe obesity. Remission of type 2 diabetes is often achieved following the surgery. We investigated whether increase in ...
