    Correlation between glucose transporter-1 expression and 18F-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose uptake on positron emission tomography in lung cancer

    The aim of this study was to determine if glucose transporter-1 (Glut1) expression correlates with 18F-FDG (18F-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose) uptake on positron emission tomography (PET) in lung cancer and to examine th...

    11C-acetate PET imaging of lung cancer: comparison with 18F-FDG PET and 99mTc-MIBI SPET

    Recently carbon-11 acetate (AC) positron emission tomography (PET) has been reported to be of clinical value for the diagnosis of cancer that is negative on fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucoce (FDG) PET. We investi...

    Correlation of Glut-1 glucose transporter expression with [18F]FDG uptake in non-small cell lung cancer

    Positron emission tomography (PET) with [18F]2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) may show negative results for bronchioloalveolar lung carcinoma. We investigated the correlation of Glut-1 glucose transporter expres...
