Quantification of O-(2-[18F]fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine kinetics in glioma

Abstract Background This study identified the optimal tracer kinetic model for quantification of dynamic O-(2-[18F]fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine ([18F]FET) positron emission tomography (PET) studies in seven patients with diffuse glioma (four glioblastoma, three lower grade glioma). The performance of mor...
