    Abstract One of the major strengths of F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) in breast cancer imaging is in the evaluation of patients who have suspected loco-regional recurrence or distant metastasis. In general, FDG-PET is more sensitive than conventional imaging for the detection of recurrent disease. Because of its ability to more accurately stage patients who have advanced breast cancer, FDG-PET has a significant impact on choice of treatment and management in this patient group.

    Abstract Positron emission tomography (PET) is a radiotracer imaging method that is increasingly used in both the clinical care of breast cancer patients and in translational breast cancer research. This review emphasizes current and future clinical applications of PET to breast cancer, and highlights some translational research using PET to elucidate the clinical biology of breast cancer. PET principles are reviewed, followed by a review of current applications of (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) to clinical breast cancer care. Finally we review work done with other radiopharmaceuticals beyond FDG designed to image a number of aspects of breast cancer biology, emphasizing those most likely to enter clinical trials in the near future.

    Abstract 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) has been used for detection, staging, and response monitoring in breast cancer patients. Although studies have proven its accuracy in detection of the primary tumor and axillary staging, its most important current clinical application is in detection and defining the extent of recurrent or metastatic breast cancer and for monitoring response to therapy. PET is complementary to conventional methods of staging in that it provides better sensitivity in detecting nodal and lytic bone metastases; however, it should not be considered a substitute for conventional staging studies, including computed tomography and bone scintigraphy. FDG uptake in the primary tumor carries prognostic information, but the underlying biochemical mechanisms responsible for enhanced glucose metabolism have not been completely elucidated. Future work using other PET tracers besides FDG will undoubtedly help our understanding of tumor biology and help tailor therapy to individual patient by improving our ability to quantify the therapeutic target, identify drug resistance factors, and measure and predict early response.

    Abstract Whereas (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-PET/computed tomography has proven to be valuable for breast cancer diagnosis and response evaluation, it is likely that PET radiopharmaceuticals beyond FDG will contribute further to the understanding of breast cancer and thereby further direct breast cancer care. Increasingly specific and quantitative approaches will help direct treatment selection from an ever-expanding and increasing array of targeted breast cancer therapies. This article highlights 4 areas of ongoing research where preliminary patient results look promising: (1) tumor perfusion and angiogenesis, (2) drug delivery and transport, (3) tumor receptor imaging, and (4) early response evaluation. For each area, the biologic background is reviewed and early results are highlighted.

    Abstract Currently, the clinical role of positron emission tomography (PET) and PET/computed tomography (CT) in patients with breast cancer is to provide additional information in select scenarios in which results of conventional imaging are indeterminate or of limited utility. There is currently no clinical role for fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET in detection of breast cancer or evaluation of axillary lymph nodes, but these are areas of active research. FDG PET is complementary to conventional staging procedures and should not be a replacement for either bone scintigraphy or diagnostic CT. FDG PET and PET/CT have been shown to be particularly useful in the restaging of breast cancer, in evaluation of response to therapy, and as a problem-solving method when results of conventional imaging are equivocal. In these situations, FDG PET often demonstrates locoregional or unsuspected distant disease that affects management. PET has demonstrated a particular capability for evaluation of chemotherapy response in both patients with locally advanced breast carcinoma and those with metastatic disease.

    Abstract Purpose: To use the parallel imaging technique, sensitivity encoding (SENSE), to increase spatial resolution and decrease venous contamination in peripheral magnetic resonance angiography (MRA).
    Materials and methods: Moving table, single-bolus peripheral contrast-enhanced (CE) -MRA was performed on nine patients. Manual table movement combined with SENSE in the upper station allowed for more rapid overall scan coverage such that acquisition of the lower station began 34 seconds after aortic contrast arrival. True sub- millimeter isotropic resolution was achieved in the lower station.
    Results: Diagnostic MR angiograms of all three stations were obtained in all nine patients. Venous enhancement did not confound interpretation in any case. Sub-millimeter lower station resolution provided excellent vascular detail.
    Conclusion: Decreased delay time between upper and lower station acquisition in single bolus peripheral MR angiograms, now possible using parallel imaging techniques, combined with lower station sub-millimeter resolution may decrease venous contamination and increase overall interpretability, thus increasing clinical acceptance of peripheral MRA.
