正电子发射断层扫描和计算机断层扫描(PET/CT)是近十年来在肿瘤学实践中出现的最重要的成像技术之一。总体而言,混合成像仍然是一个快速增长的领域,不仅在发展中国家,在西方工业化的医疗体系中也是如此。大量的技术开发和研究集中在进一步改进混合成像技术和引入新技术,如集成PET和磁共振成像(PET/MRI)。此外,还有几种新的PET示踪剂即将问世,它们有可能在诊断和治疗的混合成像中扩大临床应用。本文旨在强调目前在PET/CT和PET/MRI方面正在取得的一些重大技术和临床进展,这些进展将有可能保持混合技术在医学成像技术中的前沿地位。(C)2016年皇家放射科医生学会。爱思唯尔有限公司出版。保留所有权利。
Integrated positron-emission tomography and computed tomography (PET/CT) is one of the most important imaging techniques to have emerged in oncological practice in the last decade. Hybrid imaging, in general, remains a rapidly growing field, not only in developing countries, but also in western industrialised healthcare systems. A great deal of technological development and research is focused on improving hybrid imaging technology further and introducing new techniques, e.g., integrated PET and magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI). Additionally, there are several new PET tracers on the horizon, which have the potential to broaden clinical applications in hybrid imaging for diagnosis as well as therapy. This article aims to highlight some of the major technical and clinical advances that are currently taking place in PET/CT and PET/MRI that will potentially maintain the position of hybrid techniques at the forefront of medical imaging technologies.
