Abstract: Recent research has suggested that one novel mechanism of action for anti-obesity medications is to stimulate the activation of brown adipose tissue (BAT). 18FDG PET/CT remains the gold standard for defining and quantifying BAT. SUVmax is the most often used quantification tool in clinical practice. However, this parameter does not reflect the entire BAT volume. As a potential method for precisely evaluating BAT, we have utilised metabolic tumour volume (MTV) and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) to answer the que… Show more
