Comparison between a dual-time-window protocol and other simplified protocols for dynamic total-body 18F-FDG PET imaging
Efforts have been made both to avoid invasive blood sampling and to shorten the scan duration for dynamic positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. A total-body scanner, such as the uEXPLORER PET/CT, can rel...
