pubmed-article:10405124 | pubmed:abstractText | Cultured tumor cells show a marked increase in deoxyglucose uptake as early as 3 h after single high-dose irradiation, reflecting hyperacute response of the cells to noxious intervention. To evaluate the hyperacute effect of high-dose irradiation on tumor glucose metabolism in vivo, we measured 2-[18F]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) tumor uptake before and immediately after stereotactic radiosurgery. | lld:pubmed |
