Use of insulin to improve [18 F]fluorodeoxyglucose labelling and retention for in vivo positron emission tomography imaging of monocyte trafficking.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:This radiotherapy planning study evaluated tumour delineation using both optimally respiratory gated and nongated fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose-PET (F-FDG-PET). METHODS:For 22 non-small-cell lung tumours, both scans were used to create the nongated and gated (g) gross tumour volumes (GTVg) together with the...
