abstract：:Venous thromboembolism (VTE) can present as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and/or acute pulmonary embolism (PE). In fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) PET/CT, 18F-FDG activity along the deep veins of the lower extremities (LE) is often observed and, unless it is associated with focal intense activity, is not conside...

abstract：BACKGROUND:18F-Fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (18F-FDG-PET) is a very useful imaging technique and is the best modality for the evaluation of many kinds of tumour. However, in the evaluation of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the diagnostic accuracy of routine 60 min static imaging is not satisfactory....
