Performance Evaluation of the uEXPLORER Total-Body PET/CT Scanner Based on NEMA NU 2-2018 with Additional Tests to Characterize PET Scanners with a Long Axial Field of View

Benjamin A. Spencer et al.

Summary: This study presents a detailed physical characterization and performance evaluation of the world's first total-body PET scanner with a 194 cm AFOV. Results demonstrate high sensitivity, good spatial resolution, excellent image quality, and contrast recovery across the entire field of view, supporting the system's ultra-high performance in both phantom and human imaging.

Total-body PET/CT using half-dose FDG and compared with conventional PET/CT using full-dose FDG in lung cancer

Hui Tan et al.

Summary: The study aimed to explore the effects of total-body PET/CT with half-dose F-18-FDG activity on image quality, and found that the image quality in the half-dose group was better than in the full-dose group. Through subjective and objective analyses, it was discovered that the image quality scores were higher in the half-dose group, and the liver signal-to-noise ratio was significantly higher as well.

Ultra-low-activity total-body dynamic PET imaging allows equal performance to full-activity PET imaging for investigating kinetic metrics of 18F-FDG in healthy volunteers

Guobing Liu et al.

Summary: The study found that total-body dynamic PET imaging with a 10-fold reduction in injected activity can achieve relevant kinetic metrics of F-18-FDG and comparable image contrast with full-activity imaging, while significantly reducing radiation dose and data size.

Digital PET/CT allows for shorter acquisition protocols or reduced radiopharmaceutical dose in [18F]-FDG PET/CT

Ian Alberts et al.

Summary: This study aimed to establish the feasibility of shorter acquisition times in digital PET/CT for tumor detection and lesion contrast. Results showed that new-generation digital PET scanners are able to produce clinically adequate images with shorter acquisitions, with only a small variation in semi-quantitative parameters.

The influence of digital PET/CT on diagnostic certainty and interrater reliability in [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT for recurrent prostate cancer

Ian Alberts et al.

Summary: Digital PET/CT demonstrated a higher detection rate for pathological lesions compared with analogue PET/CT, with an improved true-positive rate and without increased diagnostic uncertainty, rate of non-specific lesions, or reduced interrater reliability.
