The need for standardisation of cardiac FDG PET imaging in the evaluation of myocardial viability in patients with chronic ischaemic left ventricular dysfunction.

abstract：PURPOSE:According to the updated WHO classification of gliomas with its emphasis on molecular parameters, tumours with an IDH-wildtype status have a dismal prognosis. To ensure timely adjustment of treatment, demand for non-invasive prediction methods is high. 18F-FET PET has been shown to be an important diagnostic to...
