    Human adipose tissue glucose uptake determined using [18F]-fluoro-deoxy-glucose ([18F]FDG) and PET in combination with microdialysis

    To determine the lumped constant (LC), which accounts for the differences in the transport and phosphorylation between [18F]-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose ([18F]FDG) and glucose, for [18F]FDG in human adipose tissu...
