선경훈,정호걸,박혁,박창서,김기덕 대한구강악안면방사선학회 2009 Imaging Science in Dentistry Vol.39 No.1

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical usefulness of the recently developed multi-detector computed tomography and cone beam computed tomography in pre-operative implant evaluation, by comparing them with the single detector computed tomography, already confirmed for accuracy in this area. Materials and Methods : Five partially edentulous dry human mandibles, with 1×1 mm gutta percha cones, placed in 5 mm intervals posterior to the mental foramen on each side of the buccal part of the mandible, were used in this study. They were scanned as follows: 1) Single detector computed tomography: slice thickness 1 mm, 200 mA, 120 kV 2) Multi-detector computed tomography: slice thickness 0.75 mm, 250 mA, 120 kV 3) Cone beam computed tomography: 15 mAs, 120 kV Axial images acquired from three computed tomographies were transferred to personal computer, and then reformatted cross-sectional images were generated using V-Implant 2.0 (CyberMed Inc., Seoul, Korea) software. Among the cross-sectional images of the gutta percha cone, placed in the buccal body of the mandible, the most precise cross section was selected as the measuring point and the distance from the most superior border of the mandibular canal to the alveolar crest was measured and analyzed 10 times by a dentist. Results : There were no significant intraobserver differences in the distance from the most superior border of the mandibular canal to the alveolar crest (p>0.05). There were no significant differences among single detector computed tomography, multi-detector computed tomography and cone beam computed tomography in the distance from the most superior border of the mandibular canal to the alveolar crest (p>0.05). Conclusion : Multi-detector computed tomography and cone beam computed tomography are clinically useful in the evaluation of pre-operative site for mandibular dental implants, with consideration for radiation exposure dose and scanning time.

Objectives : To evaluate the absorbed and effective doses of spiral and computed tomography for the dental implant planning. Materials and Methods : For radiographic projection, TLD chips were placed in 22 sites of humanoid phantom to record the exposure to skin and the mean absorbed dose to bone marrow, thyroid, pituitary, parotid and submandibular glands and nesophagus. Effective dose was calculated, using the method suggested by Frederiksen et al.. Patient situations of a single tooth gap in upper and lower midline region, edentulous maxilla and mandible were simulated for spiral tomography.35 axial slices(maxilla) and 40 axial slices (mandible) with low and standard dose setting were used for computed tomography. All the radiographic procedures were repeated three times. Results : The mean effective dose in case of maxilla was 0.865 mSv,0.452 mSv,0.136 mSv and 0.025 mSv, in spiral tomography of complete edentulous maxilla, computed tomography with standard mAs , computed nomography with low mAs and spiral tomography of a single tooth gap (p〈0.05). That in case of mandible was 0.614 mSv, 0.448 mSv, 0.137 mSv and 0.036 mSv, in spiral tomography of complete edentulous mandible, computed tomography with standard mAs, computed tomography with low mAs and spiral tomography of a single tooth gap (p〈0.05). Conclusions : Based on these results, it can be concluded that low mAs computed tomography is recommended instead of spiral tomography for the complete edentulous maxilla and mandible dental implant treatment planning.

18F-2-Deoxy-2-Fluoro-D-Glucose Positron Emission Tomography: Computed Tomography for Preoperative Staging in Gastric Cancer Patients

윤석화,윤기영,서경원,이상호,신연명 대한위암학회 2012 Journal of gastric cancer Vol.12 No.3

Purpose: The use of 18F-2-deoxy-2-fluoro-D-glucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography as a routine preoperative modality is increasing for gastric cancer despite controversy with its usefulness in preoperative staging. In this study we aimed to determine the usefulness of preoperative positron emission tomography-computed tomography scans for staging of gastric cancer. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 396 patients’ positron emission tomography-computed tomography scans acquired for preoperative staging from January to December 2009. Results: The sensitivity of positron emission tomography-computed tomography for detecting early gastric cancer was 20.7% and it was 74.2% for advanced gastric cancer. The size of the primary tumor was correlated with sensitivity, and there was a positive correlation between T stage and sensitivity. For regional lymph node metastasis, the sensitivity and specificity of the positron emission tomographycomputed tomography were 30.7% and 94.7%, respectively. There was no correlation between T stage and maximum standardized uptake value or between tumor markers and maximum standardized uptake value. Fluorodeoxyglucose uptake was detected by positron emission tomography-computed tomography in 24 lesions other than the primary tumors. Among them, nine cases were found to be malignant, including double primary cancers and metastatic cancers. Only two cases were detected purely by positron emission tomography-computed tomography. Conclusions: Positron emission tomography-computed tomography could be useful in detecting metastasis or another primary cancer for preoperative staging in gastric cancer patients, but not for T or N staging. More prospective studies are needed to determine whether positron emission tomography-computed tomography scans should be considered a routine preoperative imaging modality.

Comparison of Cup Setting Angle Accuracy between Computed Tomography-Based and Computed Tomography-Free Navigation in the Same Patients with Crowe’s Classification I or II Hip Dysplasia

Nobuhiro Kaku,Hiroaki Tagomori,Hiroshi Tsumura 대한정형외과학회 2021 Clinics in Orthopedic Surgery Vol.13 No.2

Background: In total hip arthroplasty, the cup setting angle may affect the postoperative results. In recent years, both computed tomography-based navigation and computed tomography-free (imageless) navigation have been reported to produce high accuracy in cup installation; however, no direct comparison between these two methods has been performed. The present study aimed to directly compare the cup installation angle accuracy between computed tomography-based navigation and computed tomographyfree navigation in patients with Crowe’s classification stage I or II dysplastic osteoarthritis and to examine the factors affecting the cup installation accuracy. Methods: Using both navigation systems for the same technique, primary total hip arthroplasty was performed by the same surgeon in 36 patients. A cup was installed using computed tomography-based navigation, and the installed cup was measured again using computed tomography-free navigation. We compared the error between the target angle and the intraoperative installation angle for each navigation method by performing statistical analyses. Results: For computed tomography-based navigation, errors in the inclination and the anteversion angles compared to the target angle were 3.14° ± 1.55° and 1.47° ± 0.99°, respectively. For computed tomography-free navigation, the inclination and anteversion angle errors were significantly larger, i.e., 6.84° ± 4.78° and 5.43° ± 5.22°, respectively (p < 0.01). The inclination and anteversion angles of computed tomography-free navigation were correlated, and there were no significant factors influencing the error. Conclusions: Computed tomography-based navigation is more accurate for cup installation than computed tomography-free navigation. When using computed tomography-free navigation, it is necessary to add technical schemes before and during surgery to improve the cup installation accuracy.

Case Report : Adult granulosa cell tumor presenting with massive ascites, elevated CA-125 level, and low 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake on positron emission tomography/computed tomography

( Ji Young Tak ),( Gun Oh Chong ),( Ji Y. Park ),( Seung Jeong Lee ),( Yoon Hee Lee ),( Dae Gy Hong ) 대한산부인과학회 2015 Obstetrics & Gynecology Science Vol.58 No.5

Adult granulosa cell tumors (AGCTs) presenting with massive ascites and elevated serum CA-125 levels have rarely been described in the literature. An ovarian mass, massive ascites, and elevated serum CA-125 levels in postmenopausal women generally suggest a malignant ovarian tumor, particularly advanced epithelial ovarian cancer. AGCT has low 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake on positron emission tomography/computed tomography due to its low metabolic activity. In the present report, we describe a case of an AGCT with massive ascites, elevated serum CA-125 level, and low 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake on positron emission tomography/computed tomography.

Purpose: Lymph node metastasis is a very important prognostic factor for all skin cancers and some sarcomas. A sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy is the most useful technique for identifying SLNs. Recently, a new generation of diagnostic tools, such as single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) and positron emission tomography/CT (PET/CT) enabled the detection of SLNs. This study compared the efficacy of PET/CT for detecting lymph node metastases with a SLN biopsy in a single medical center. Materials and Methods: From 2008 to 2018, 72 skin cancers of sarcoma patients diagnosed with some lymph node involvement in a whole body PET/CT reading were assessed. Patients suspected of lymph node metastasis were sent to biopsy and those suspected to be reactive lesions were observed. The analysis was performed retrospectively using the medical records, clinical information, PET/CT readings, and pathology results. Results: The age of patients ranged from 14 to 88 years and the mean follow-up period was 2.4 years. Twenty-two patients were suspected of a lymph node metastasis and confirmed. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of PET/CT images in sarcoma and non-sarcoma tumors were increased significantly when the expert’s findings were considered together. Conclusion: PET/CT is effective in detecting lymph node metastases. 목적: 악성 종양 환자에서 림프절 전이를 발견하는 것은 초기에 정확한 병기 및 예후와 관련된 정보를 알 수 있고 수술 후 보조치료(adjuvant therapy)의 필요성을 평가해서 조기에 치료를 할 수 있도록 해주기 때문에 중요하다. 본 연구를 통해 정형외과 영역의 악성 종양 환자를 평가함에 있어 양전자 방출 컴퓨터 단층 촬영기(positron emission tomography/computed tomography, PET/CT)가 sentinel lymph node biopsy와 비교하여 유용한지를 알아보고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 2008년부터 2018년까지 악성 근골격계 종양으로 진단받고 PET/CT를 촬영한 환자 251명 중 72명의 환자를 선별하여 후향적 분석을 시행하였다. 림프절 전이가 의심되는 환자군은 조직검사를 시행하였다. 분석은 의무기록, 임상정보, PET/CT 영상 및 판독 소견, 병리 결과를 통해 시행하였으며, 임상경과 및 병리검사 결과를 PET/CT 결과와 비교하여 PET/CT의 정확도를 평가하였다. 결과: 환자의 나이는 14세에서 88세까지 분포하였고, 평균 추시 기간은 2.4년이었으며, 22명에서 림프절의 전이가 확인되었다. 육종 및 비육종 종양에서 PET/CT 영상의 민감도, 특이도, 양성예측도, 음성예측도는 전문가의 소견을 함께 고려할 경우 상당히 상승하는 것을 확인하였다. 결론:

송찬일,한명월,이윤세,김상윤,최승호,남순열 대한이비인후과학회 2010 대한이비인후과학회지 두경부외과학 Vol.53 No.7

Background and Objectives Fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) has been widely used to detect regional and distant metastasis or second primary cancers at initial evaluation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of combined FDG-PET/CT in detecting early glottic cancers, which has low incidence of regional or distant metastasis. Subjects and Method We enrolled in our study 551 patients who had previously untreated glottic cancer between 2001 and 2008. Of these, 124 patients with early glottic cancer underwent FDG-PET/CT. Retrospectively, we compared the detection rates of regional, distant metastasis or second primary cancer by FDG-PET/CT with those after neck computed tomography (CT),chest X-ray, and liver sonography. Results In detecting regional metastasis, the sensitivity and specificity of FDG-PET/CT were 66.67% and 97.25%, respectively, with the positive predictive value (PPV) of 40%, the negative predictive value (NPV) of 99.16%, and the accuracy of 96.77%. The sensitivity, specificity, PPV,NPV and accuracy of neck CT were 66.67%, 96.69%, 33.33%, 99.15%, and 95.96%, respectively. The suspicious distant metastasis (n=1) and second primary cancers (n=7) were observed in FDG-PET/CT. The true second primary cancers occurred at the colon (n=1) and the prostate (n=2). The other cases were proved to be false positive. Distant metastasis and second primary cancers were not detected by the conventional work-up tests. Conclusion The regional metastasis detection rate of FDG-PET/CT was similar to those of the conventional work-up tests. However, compared to the conventional tests, FDG-PET/CT is useful for detecting distant metastasis or second primary cancers in patients with early glottic cancer.

In this study, the features of canine lymphoma on fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) were evaluated in three small breed dogs. In case 1, ultrasonography and CT indicated neoplastic involvement of the sternal, right axillary, submandibular, lower cervical, tracheobronchial, mesenteric, and sublumbar lymph nodes; spleen; and liver. However, intense FDG uptake on PET/CT images was detected only for the lymph nodes and spleen. No FDG uptake by the liver was detected for case 1 despite the confirmation of lymphoma by cytology. In case 2, ultrasonography and CT indicated neoplastic involvement of the axillary, mesenteric, and sublumbar lymph nodes and the spleen, while intense FDG uptake on PET/CT images was detected for the axillary and a few mesenteric lymph nodes, and the spleen. FDG uptake was additionally observed from popliteal lymph nodes, however there was no uptake by the sublumbar lymph nodes and some mesenteric lymph nodes. In case 3, neoplastic changes in the splenic, mesenteric, and sublumbar lymph nodes and spleen were suspected on ultrasonography, and lower cervical and popliteal lymph node involvements were additionally detected on PET/ CT. Compared to ultrasonography, repeated PET/CT showed increased FDG uptake by the lymph nodes at an earlier stage after chemotherapy in case 3. This study illustrated the features of PET/CT in canine lymphomas and compared those to ultrasonography and CT findings. FDG uptakes were not detected from some lesions which were suspected to be neoplastic involvement in case 1 and 2. We could not clearly explain the reason of this result in the present study because cytological or histological examination was not performed for lesions that showed different results on ultrasonography, CT, and PET/CT. Further studies on the subclassification of canine lymphoma and the sensitivity and specificity of PET/CT for the detection of canine lymphoma are required. PET/CT data can provide useful information for predicting the therapeutic response at an early stage after treatment.

<P><B>ABSTRACT</B></P><P>A 12-year-old spayed female Yorkshire Terrier with intermittent vomiting was diagnosed with regional granulomatous enteritis through histopathological examination. On ultrasonography and computed tomography, a focal thickened duodenal wall showed a mass-like appearance with indistinct wall layers. Marked uptake of <SUP>18</SUP>F-fluorodeoxyglucose was observed from the mass on positron emission tomography-computed tomography. Regional granulomatous enteritis is a rare form of inflammatory bowel disease and may have imaging features similar to intestinal tumors. This is the first study describing the diagnostic imaging features of ultrasonography, computed tomography and positron emission tomography-computed tomography for regional granulomatous enteritis in a dog.</P>
