摘要

Brain positron emission tomography (PET)-computed tomography scan is a sensitive imaging technique that maps PET radiopharmaceuticals’ distribution in physiological and pathological scenarios. This chapter will answer the common questions about fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET and non-FDG PET tracers and their clinical applications, advantages, limitations, and challenges.
