Psoas muscle fluorine‐18‐labelled fluoro‐2‐deoxy‐d‐glucose uptake associated with the incidence of existing and incipient metabolic derangement

Abstract Background Skeletal muscle glucose utilization is an important component of whole‐body glucose consumption in normal humans. Fluorine‐18‐labelled fluoro‐2‐deoxy‐d‐glucose (18F‐FDG) is a non‐invasive molecular imaging probe for evaluating tissue glucose utilization. It remains unclear whethe...
