Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Retrospective development cohort

A total of 85 18F-FDG-PET adult studies were gathered over a 3-month period and retrospectively evaluated.

Image quantify

Intervention Type OTHER

Will be observed all patients who perform PET / CT examinations, independent of clinical indication, in nuclear medicine at Hospital Sao Rafael. Those who show interest in participating in the study, will be provided free and informed consent form (ICF) for your appreciation. This evaluation will serve for analysis and quantification of PET-CT images.

Prospective validation cohort

To verify the application of methodology in clinical routine, we conducted a second phase of the study prospectively in 250 subjects (phase 2) using inclusion and exclusion criteria of the retrospective study (phase 1).

Image quantify

Intervention Type OTHER

Will be observed all patients who perform PET / CT examinations, independent of clinical indication, in nuclear medicine at Hospital Sao Rafael. Those who show interest in participating in the study, will be provided free and informed consent form (ICF) for your appreciation. This evaluation will serve for analysis and quantification of PET-CT images.
