Usefulness of Topically Applied Sensors to Assess the Quality of 18F-FDG Injections and Validation Against Dynamic Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Images

Abstract: Background: Infiltrations of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) injections affect positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) image quality and quantification. A device using scintillation sensors (Lucerno Dynamics, Cary, NC) provides dynamic measurements acquired during FDG uptake to identify and characterize radioactivity near the injection site prior to patient imaging. Our aim was to compare sensor measurements against dynamic PET image acquisition, our proposed reference in assessing injection qua… Show more

“…Clinically, PET and SUV, traditionally for 18F-FDG and now also for 68Ga-PSMA and 68Ga-DOTATATE, require pharmacokinetic assumptions including predictable dose delivery. Extravasation or infiltration occurs when the dose, or part thereof, is administered outside the venous system [2][3][4]. Partial extravasation of the intravenous (IV) dose administration undermines predictability of dose delivery and potentially the accuracy of SUV calculations [2].…”

“…Partial extravasation of the intravenous (IV) dose administration undermines predictability of dose delivery and potentially the accuracy of SUV calculations [2]. The dose administration should be a bolus over approximately 1 minute [3]. The subsequent uptake period varies from 45 to 60 minutes but for accurate SUV consistency of timing is required.…”

“…Furthermore, during PET/CT image interpretation, the injection site is often outside the imaging field of view (8). Detection is further hindered when the injection site is within the imaging field of view but the infiltration has resolved completely, leaving no visible evidence (9). There are also few published data on PET/CT radiotracer injection infiltration rates.…”
