FDG PET Imaging as A Non-invasive Method to Demonstrate Peri-infarct Depression after Stroke
Conclusion: FDG PET imaging is reliable to reflect metabolic stress imposed by peri-infarct depression. Peri-infarct depression leads to the metabolic change in neurons, including suppression of mitochondria function and overactivation of glycolysis, thus deteriorate functional and tissue consequence. The insults from PID could be alleviated by improving mitochondria function.

Case report of nuclear medicine, bone scan imaging on a patient with heat stroke induced rhabdomyolysis
J Nucl Med Technol. 2021 Jul 30:jnmt.121.262501. doi: 10.2967/jnmt.121.262501. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBone scan continues to be the second greatest-volume nuclear imaging procedure, offering the advantage of total body examination, low cost, and high sensitivity not only for metastatic lesions but also benign conditions. Its power rests in the physiological uptake and pathophysiologic behavior of 99m technetium (99m-Tc) diphosphonates. 1 The localization of radiotracers in damaged skeletal muscles is because calcium builds up in them and provides a site for radiotracer deposition when combined with phosphate.1 In ca...
