The influence of tumor oxygenation on <sup>18</sup>F-FDG (Fluorine-18 Deoxyglucose) uptake: A mouse study using positron emission tomography (PET)
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>This study investigated whether changing a tumor's oxygenation would alter tumor metabolism, and thus uptake of <sup>18</sup>F-FDG (fluorine-18 deoxyglucose), a marker for glucose metabolism using positron emission t...
