ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the image characteristics and clinical value of 18F-FDG PET/CT in patients with extranodal nasal type natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL).Methods From January 2012 to March 2016,20 ENKTL patients (12 males,8 females;median age 53 years) who underwent whole-body 18F-FDG PET/CT were enrolled in this retrospective study.Eleven patients were newly diagnosed,and 9 were previously treated.Clinical data were collected for histopathology and bone marrow biopsy,laboratory results,PET/CT and radiological findings such as CT or MRI.The final diagnosis was based on histopathology and immunohistochemistry.Mann-Whitney u test was used to compare the SUVmax of newly diagnosed patients and patients with recurrence or disease progression after therapy.Spearman correlation analysis was used to explore the relation between diameter of tumor-invaded lymph nodes and SUVmax.Results ENKTL could be found in all parts of the body,but more frequently in the nasal cavity,nasopharynx and skin.All lesions showed high uptake of FDG on PET/CT.The SUVmax of newly diagnosed patients was significantly higher than that of patients (n=7) with recurrence or disease progression:6.5(4.3,10.4) vs 5.4(3.4,8.9);u=6 853.500,z=-2.039,P<0.05).The diameter of tumor-invaded lymph nodes showed weakly positive correlation with SUVmax(rs =0.290,P<0.01),suggesting that invasion of ENKTL might not be accurately evaluated by the size of lymph nodes.The staging by PET/CT was concordant with clinical final staging in 11 newly diagnosed patients,while the staging by CT or MRI was only correct in 6 patients.Conclusions PET/CT is superior to conventional imaging modalities in diagnosis and staging for patients with ENKTL.Since some lesions might be found in the limbs,limbs should be included in the scan field.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the identification of the hypoxia regions within the primary foci and imaging time selection in 18F-fluoromisonidazole (FMISO) imaging on patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).Methods From July 2013 to July 2014,44 NPC patients (33 males,11 females,age range:18-74(53.45± 12.88) years) underwent 18 F-FMISO PET/CT imaging,including 3 cases with twice imaging (totally 47 case times).Inaging data were acquired and reconstructed 2 and 4 h after the injection of 18 F-FMISO.1s F-FMISO PET/CT images were merged with MRI images obtained 1 week before to construct fusion images.The boundary of primary tumor was determined based on MRI.Visual analysis was performed and SUVmax of posterior cervical muscles,NPC primary foci was measured by 2 observers respectively.The uptake ratio of primary tumor to muscle (TMR) was calculated.The identify consistency of hypoxic region between two observers were evaluated by Kappa test and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC).The image contrast was evaluated by Wilcoxon paired rank sum test of TMR.Results PET images and MRI images of NPC primary foci were successfully fused.Positive non-NPC tissues were identified by MRI.The visual recognition of hypoxic regions of the two observers for 2 and 4 h imaging were highly consistent (Kappa =0.931 and 0.965,both P<0.001).There was a high degree of consistency between the SUVmax of posterior cervicalmuscles and that of primary tumors.ICCs of posterior cervical muscles in 2 and 4 h were 0.896 (95% CI:0.814-0.942) and 0.924 (95% CI:0.865-0.958),respectively.ICCs of primary tumors in 2 and 4 h were 0.991 (95% CI:0.985-0.995) and 0.998 (95% CI:0.996-0.999),respectively.TMRs (M(P25,P75))in 2 and 4 h were 1.560 (1.341,3.015) and 1.675 (1.387,3.001) respectively in 24 positive case times,and the difference was statistically significant (z=-2.557,P<0.05).Conclusions Using fusion images of 18F-FMISO PET and MRI,hypoxic tissues within NPC primary foci can be accurately identified.There is a high degree of consistency within the visual and quantitative analysis of two observers.The image contrast of 18F-FMISO PET at 4 h is superior to that at 2 h.

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the relevant factors influencing 18F-FDG uptake in the primary lesion of breast invasive ductal carcinoma (BIDC).Methods A total of 160 female patients underwent 18 F-FDG PET/CT examination from 2010 to 2015 and breast lesions were revealed.Lesions were divided into benign group (n =118) and malignant group (n =49,BIDC) according to pathological results.KruskalWallis H test and Mann-Whitney u test were performed to compare SUVmax of the two groups,and to investigate the relationship between the SUVmax of breast malignant lesion and patients' age as well as clinical pathological parameters including T stage,lymphatic vessel invasion,nuclear grade,route of metastasis,ER,PR,HER2 and Ki-67 expression,and subtype of breast cancer.The diagnostic efficiency of 18F-FDG PET/ CT in differentiating benign and malignant breast lesions was analyzed using ROC curve analysis.Results The SUVmax of BIDC was 6.09(3.88,9.26),higher than that of breast benign lesion (1.35 (0.95,2.35);u=341.0,P<0.05).The SUVmax of BIDC showed statistically significant difference between groups with different T stage,with or without lymphatic vessel invasion,with different nuclear grade,different routes of metastasis and different Ki-67 expression (u:117.5-209.5,H=7.70,P<0.01 or 0.05).For all breast lesions,lesions with the maximum diameter ≤ 2.0 cm and lesions with the maximum diameter >2.0 cm,the optimum cutoff values of SUVmax were >2.60,> 1.71 and >3.97,respectively.When the optimum cutoff values of SUVmax for breast lesions with the maximum diameter ≤2.0 cm were selected as > 1.71 and >2.60,the Youden indexes were 0.66 and 0.61(z=0.566,P>0.05).When the optimum cutoff values of SUVmax for breast lesions with the maximum diamter >2.0 cm were selected as >3.97 and >2.60,the Youden indexes were 0.89 and 0.81(z=0.748,P>0.05).Conclusions T stage,lymphatic vessel invasion,nuclear grade,route of metastasis and Ki-67 expression of BIDC influence the uptake of 18F-FDG by tumor tissues.The SUVmax of the primary lesion of BIDC is related to the size of lesion,and thus the diagnostic threshold of SUVmax should be decreased appropriately for small lesions.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the relationship between 18F-FDG uptake and P-gp expression in Bcap37 or Bcap37/MDR1 tumor-bearing BALB/c nude mice.Methods Bcap37 or Bcap37/MDR1 cells were injected into BALB/c nude mice (1× 107cells/ml,0.2 ml/mouse) to construct mice models.Bcap37 (n=5) or Bcap37/MDR1 (n=5) tumor-bearing mice fasted for 6 h before imaging.After anesthesia,the mice were injected with 7.4 MBq of 18F-FDG via tail vein.The dynamic microPET scans were carried out for 90 min.On the microPET images,the ROI was drawn and the TAC was obtained.The next day,those 10 mice underwent dynamic microPET scans after injected with elacridar (GF120918) and 18F-FDG.Another 10 mice,5 with Bcap37 tumors and 5 with Bcap37/MDR1 tumors,were used.After 7.4 MBq 18F-FDG with or without 2.0 mg/kg GF120918 was administered via tail vein,microPET images were acquired at 60 min.ROI was drawn over the tumors and SUV was obtained.Two-sample t test was used to analyze the data.Results GF120918 did not significantly alter the 18F-FDG accumulation curve in Bcap37 tumors,but significantly enhanced the 18F-FDG accumulation in Bcap37/MDR1 tumors.GF120918 did not influence 18F-FDG uptake (SUV) in Bcap37 tumors (1.052±0.028,1.028±0.045,t =1.792,P>0.05),but significantly increased the SUV in Bcap37/MDR1 tumors (1.015±0.043,0.712±0.031,t=3.365,P<0.05);The SUV of 18 F-FDG in Bcap37 tumors was significantly higher than that in Bcap37/MDR1 tumors without injection of GF120918 (t =3.952,P<0.05).The SUV was not significantly different when GF120118 was injected (t=1.835,P>0.05).Conclusions 18F-FDG is a substrate of P-gp.18F-FDG imaging combined with GF120918 injection may be an effective noninvasive method for the detection of tumor's MDR.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the value of gastrointestinal tract preparation with oral racean?isodamine tablets and isotonic mannitol in 18 F?FDG PET/CT imaging. Methods From July to September 2013, 129 patients with confirmed or suspected tumors who were referred for 18 F?FDG PET/CT imaging were divided into 2 groups. In the study group (30 males, 37 females, age (53.4±13.9) years), raceanisodam?ine tablets (10 mg) and 1 000-1 200 ml isotonic mannitol solution (2.5%) were orally taken at 10 min after in?jection of 18F?FDG;while in the control group (37 males, 25 females, age (60.0±12.8) years), 1 000-1 200 ml water was given. Mann?Whitney u test was used to compare the difference between the 2 groups in the filling degree of gastrointestinal lumen, delineation of tube wall, physiological uptake, matching degree of PET and CT images, delineation of mesentery, and the influence of gastrointestinal uptake on the identification of ab?dominal and pelvic lesions. χ2 test was used to compare the difference between the 2 groups in the uptake pattern of gastrointestinal tract and the incidence of side effects. Spearman correlation analysis was used to study the correlation between gastrointestinal lumen filling and PET/CT image matching. Results The gas?trointestinal lumen filling, delineation of tube wall, PET/CT image matching in the stomach, small intestine and colon (z: -5.096 to -2.665, all P0.05). There was statistically significant difference in the uptake pattern of small intestine between the two groups(χ2=12.884, P0.05). The incidence of transient diarrhea (20?9%, 14/67) was higher in the study group than that in the control group (4.8%, 3/62;χ2=7.256,P<0.01). Conclusions The abdominal PET/CT image quality is improved by gastrointestinal preparation with oral raceanisodamine tablets (10 mg) and 1 000-1 200 ml isoton?ic mannitol solution (2.5%).

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the effect of P-gp inhibitors of verapamil (VER) and GF120918 on 18F-FDG uptake in Bcap37 and Bcap37/multidrug resistancce (MDR)1 cell lines in vitro,and to explore the relationship between 18F-FDG uptake and P-gp expression at cellular level.Methods Bcap37 and Bcap37/MDR1 cells were seeded into 6-well plates at a density of 1 × 106 per well.Three days later,37 kBq/ml 18F-FDG,or 37 kBq/ml 18F-FDG + 100 μmoL/L VER,or 37 kBq/ml 18F-FDG + 50 μmol/L GF120918 were added into each well.Mter incubated for 10,30,60 and 120 min at 37 ℃ and in 5% CO2,the medium was removed and the cells were washed three times with 1 ml ice-cold PBS immediately.The radioactivity of 18 F-FDG was measured using a gamma counter.The uptake of 18F-FDG was expressed as the ratio of 18F-FDG radioactivity in Bcap37 or Bcap37/MDR1 cells and the overall radioactivity added to the cells in each well.The t test was used for statistical analysis.Results 18F-FDG uptake was higher in Bcap37/MDR1 cells than that in Bcap37 cells after incubated for 10 min.The uptake rate was (1.88 ±0.19) % in Bcap37/MDR1 cells and (1.37 ± 0.18) % in Bcap37 cells (t =7.832,P < 0.05).On the contrary,18 F-FDG uptake was significantly higher in Bcap37 cells than that in Bcap37/MDR1 cells after incubated for 60 and 120 min.The uptake rates were (2.29 ±0.23)% and (2.34 ±0.15)% in Bcap37 cells,(1.47 ±0.14)% and (1.53 ±0.22)% in Bcap37/MDR1 cells (t =8.437,8.283,both P < 0.05).18 F-FDG uptake was significantly higher with VER or GF120918 in Bcap37/MDR1 cells than that without VER or GF120918 after the incubation of 60 and 120 min (t =9.032,9.243 and 8.765,8.803,all P < 0.05).The uptake rates with VER or GF120918 were (2.45 ±0.21)% and (2.46 ±0.25)%,(2.50 ±0.24)% and (2.48 ±0.27)%.There was no significant difference of 18F-FDG uptake in Bcap37 cells with or without VER or GF120918.Conclusions 18F-FDG is a substrate of P-gp at cellular level.P-gp may act as an efflux pump to reduce 18F-FDG uptake in Bcap37/MDR1 cells.The uptake of 18F-FDG can be used to evaluate the function of P-gp in tumor cells.
