Open AccessThe impact of ZTE-based MR attenuation correction compared to CT-AC in 18F-FBPA PET before boron neutron capture therapy
Tumor-to-normal ratio (T/N) measurement of 18F-FBPA is crucial for patient eligibility to receive boron neutron capture therapy. This study aims to compare the difference in standard uptake value ratios on brain ...

SPECT and CT misregistration reduction in [99mTc]Tc-MAA SPECT/CT for precision liver radioembolization treatment planning
Respiration and body movement induce misregistration between static [99mTc]Tc-MAA SPECT and CT, causing lung shunting fraction (LSF) and tumor-to-normal liver ratio (TNR) errors for 90Y radioembolization planning...

Open AccessVoxel-S-Value based 3D treatment planning methods for Y-90 microspheres radioembolization based on Tc-99m-macroaggregated albumin SPECT/CT
Partition model (PM) for Y-90 microsphere radioembolization is limited in providing 3D dosimetrics. Voxel-S-Values (VSV) method has good agreement with Monte Carlo (MC) simulations for 3D absorbed dose convers...

Evaluation of PET List Data-Driven Gated Motion Correction Technique Applied in Lung Tumors
Positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) is an important tool for tumor staging or treatment response evaluation, especially for lung tumors. However, the captured static PET image could be bl...

Preoperative Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography Predicts Advanced Lymph Node Metastasis in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Patients
We aimed to study whether positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) findings are associated with lymph node staging, as outlined by the 7th edition American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) TNM...

The feasibility of 11C-methionine-PET in diagnosis of solitary lung nodules/masses when compared with 18F-FDG-PET
To differentiate between benign and malignant lesions of the lung, 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (18F-FDG-PET) has limitations such as a lower specificity in cases of non-specific inflammati...
