A study method using early dynamic acquisition of [18F]fluorodopa positron emission tomography for the differential diagnosis between progression and radionecrosis of brain metastases after radiotherapy

Abstract Background It is difficult to distinguish between the brain metastasis progression (BMP) and brain radionecrosis (BRN) on the basis of 18F-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine positron emission tomography/computed-tomography (18F-FDOPA PET/CT) data. The advent of silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) PET te...
