Brief Summary

The aim of the present study is to evaluate the factors affecting BAT activation in 18F-FDG-PET/CT in different tumours

Conditions

Factors Affecting BAT Activation in PET/CT

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• the main factors that affect appearance of BAT in PET/CT studies and try to avoid these factors.

  the amount and SUV max of the detected BAT activation in PET scan correlated with the patient prognosis.

  from 7/2019 to 7/2022

Interventions

PET/CT DEVICE

18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18FFDG PET/CT) is a non-invasive imaging modality used for staging and surveillance of various types of malignancies through imaging of glucose metabolism in cancer cells.

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 18 Years - 80 Years
• Sex: all
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
• Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

cancer patients undergoing PET/CT

You may qualify if:

• This study will include all patients presented with different types of tumors.
• patients conscious to provide informed consent

You may not qualify if:

• Patients who have contraindications to PET/CT scanning such as: a blood glucose level higher than 150-200 mg/dL, uncontrolled diabetics.
• Intolerance of PET/CT due to claustrophobia will be excluded from the study.
• Patients under age of 18
