This chapter will focus on compounds of Fluorine 18 used in PETCT imaging. We will review the underlying physiology, common clinical indications and pitfalls of F-18-FDG, that is by far the most commonly used PET tracer in clinical practice. NaF-18, F-18-choline and F-18-labelled amyloid agents are also discussed.

摘要

 This chapter will focus on compounds of Fluorine 18 used in PETCT imaging. We will review the underlying physiology, common clinical indications and pitfalls of F-18-FDG, that is by far the most commonly used PET tracer in clinical practice. NaF-18, F-18-choline and F-18-labelled amyloid agents are also discussed.
