Subsequent to the fi rst report of 18 F-FDGdirected surgery in 1999 [ 6 , 26 , 27 ], multiple
groups of investigators from across the globe
have collectively investigated the utility of realtime 18 F-FDG-directed surgery and real-time
18 F-FDG-directed diagnostic and therapeutic
interventional procedures in regard to a wide
range of solid malignancies, including colorectal
cancer, gastric cancer, gastroesophageal cancer,
pancreatic cancer, melanoma, lymphoma, breast
cancer, ovarian cancer, endometrial cancer, cervical cancer, vulvar cancer, testicular cancer, prostate cancer, head and neck malignancies
(squamous cell cancer of the oral cavity, oropharynx, hypopharynx, and laryngeal regions, iodinenegative recurrent papillary thyroid cancer, and
recurrent medullary thyroid cancer), lung cancer,
squamous cell cancer of the skin, GIST (gastrointestinal stromal tumor tumors), sarcoma, adrenocortical carcinoma, and carcinoma of unknown
primary [ 6 , 28 – 95 ]. Table 25.1 summarizes all
reported real-time 18 F-FDG-directed surgery
series in the literature [ 6 , 26 – 76 ]. Table 25.2
summarizes all reported real-time 18 F-FDGdirected diagnostic and therapeutic interventional
procedure series in the literature [ 6 , 77 – 95 ]. It is
worth noting a substantial portion of the clinical
investigations into the use of 18 F-FDG for realtime detection and guidance during cancer surgery for a variety of solid malignancies have been
conducted at the Ohio State University
(Columbus, Ohio, USA) [ 6 , 26 – 28 , 44 , 46 – 51 ,
53 , 54 , 56 , 59 , 67 , 71 – 76 ].
Our own experience with utilizing 18 F-FDG
for real-time cancer detection and guidance
within the operating room at the Ohio State
University (Columbus, Ohio, USA) [ 6 , 26 – 28 ,
44 , 46 – 51 , 53 , 54 , 56 , 59 , 67 , 71 – 76 ] has strength-
ened our long-standing contention regarding the
importance of implementing a multimodal imaging and detection approach to 18 F-FDG-directed
surgery [ 50 , 67 , 74 , 76 ]. Since 2005, the general
structure of this multimodal approach has incorporated various components, including (1) sameday preoperative patient diagnostic whole-body
PET/CT imaging, (2) intraoperative gamma
detection probe assessment, (3) specimen imaging of surgically resected specimens with both a
clinical PET/CT unit and a micro PET/CT unit,
(4) radioactivity counting of selected portion of
surgically resected specimens by an automatic
gamma well counter, and (5) same-day postoperative patient diagnostic limited fi eld-of-view
PET/CT imaging [
67 ].
On the day of the anticipated 18 F-FDGdirected surgery procedure, patients fasted for a
minimum of 6 h before undergoing the same-day
preoperative diagnostic whole-body 18 F-FDG
PET/CT scan [ 67 , 74 ]. Each patient received a
same-day, single-dose, preoperative, intravenous
injection of 18 F-FDG, consisting of an averaged
recommended dose in the range of approximately
15 mCi (555 MBq). The 18 F-FDG dosing at the
Ohio State University (Columbus, Ohio, USA)
was based upon the standard-of-care practice
guidelines set in the USA by the Society of
Nuclear Medicine, the American College of
Radiology, and the Society for Pediatric
Radiology for diagnostic 18 F-FDG PET/CT
image acquisition (i.e., 10–20 mCi (370–
740 MBq) of 18 F-FDG in adults) [ 128 , 129 ]. The
same-day, single-dose, preoperative, intravenous
dose of 18 F-FDG was generally administered
approximately 75 min prior to the planned time
of the same-day preoperative diagnostic wholebody 18 F-FDG PET/CT scan, which was
performed within the time frame recognized by
the standard-of-care practice guidelines set in the
USA by the Society of Nuclear Medicine, the
American College of Radiology, and the Society
for Pediatric Radiology for diagnostic
18
F-FDG
PET/CT image acquisition [ 128 , 129 ]. The same-
day preoperative diagnostic whole-body 18 F-FDG
PET/CT scan usually consisted of 6–8 fi eld-ofview PET bed positions and with 2 min of PET
imaging for each fi eld-of-view PET bed position.
Patients then proceeded to the operating room for
their anticipated surgical procedure and completed standard postoperative recovery in the
postanesthesia care unit. The same-day postoperative diagnostic limited fi eld-of-view 18 F-FDG
PET/CT scan was generally restricted to those
fi eld-of-view PET bed positions encompassing
the immediate area of the surgical fi eld (usually
consisting of 1–3 fi eld-of-view PET bed positions, in order to limit overall patient radiation

https://t.me/med1917
435
exposure for the CT portion of the PET/CT, and
with 10 min of PET imaging for each fi eld-ofview PET bed position).
Our multimodal imaging and detection
approach to 18 F-FDG-directed surgery at the
Ohio State University (Columbus, Ohio, USA)
[ 50 , 67 , 74 , 76 ] demonstrated technical and logis-
tical feasibility for coordination of services by
the surgeon, nuclear medicine physician, and
pathologist in a same-day fashion. It allowed for
(1) real-time intraoperative staging of the extent
of disease; (2) real-time intraoperative surgical
planning and execution of the necessary and most
appropriate operation, determination of the extent
of surgical resection, and determination of the
completeness of surgical resection; (3) real-time
pathologic evaluation of intact surgical resected
specimens for the confi rmation of completeness
of surgical resection and for surgical margin
assessment; and (4) real-time pathologic evaluation of diagnostically biopsied tissues for confi rmation of correctness of tissue diagnosis.
25.6 Timing Issues Related
18
F-FDG-Directed Surgery:
to
Impact of Length of Time
18
from Injection of
F-FDG
to the Performance
of Intraoperative Gamma
Detection Probing
Numerous investigators have evaluated the concept of delayed phase and dual-time-point diagnostic 18 F-FDG PET imaging [ 74 ] in which a
portion of the diagnostic 18 F-FDG PET imaging
sequence is extended temporally out further than
is generally recommended by the standardof- care practice guidelines for diagnostic
18 F-FDG PET/CT image acquisition [ 128 , 129 ].
Remarkably, several of these groups of investigators have performed delayed phase diagnostic
18 F-FDG PET imaging out to ultra-extended
injection-to-scan acquisition time intervals ranging to 6–9 h after the initial 18 F-FDG injection
dose is administered [ 31 , 74 , 130 – 134 ].
In contrast to the innumerous work done on
extended injection-to-scan acquisition time
18
intervals for diagnostic
F-FDG PET imaging,
there has been very little data or discussion in the
literature regarding the equivalent scenario of
extended injection-to-probing time intervals as it
pertains to gamma detection probing of patients
intravenously injected with 18 F-FDG [ 31 , 38 , 42 ,
43 , 74 ]. Therefore, it is reasonable to say that the
optimal length of time from the injection of 18 FFDG to the performance of intraoperative gamma
detection probing has yet to be determined.
In 2004, Higashi et al. [ 31 , 74 ] examined the
question of “appropriate timing” for “postinjection” gamma detection probing using phantom
studies and a limited series of 3 patients with
“superfi cially located malignant lesions.” For the
phantom studies, they used 5 liter plastic barrels
fi lled with saline containing varying-dose “background” 18 F-FDG as the “body trunk” phantom,
0.2 liter plastic bottles fi lled with saline containing varying-dose 18 F-FDG as the “kidney” phantom, and 2 fi xed-dose 18 F-FDG sources to simulate
“superfi cially located tumor nodules.” For the 3
patients with “superfi cially located malignant
lesions,” they performed “preoperative” gamma
detection probing at the skin surface at 1, 3, 5, 6,
and/or 7 h after receiving an intravenous injection
of 2–10 mCi (74–370 MBq) of 18 F-FDG (and for
which no intraoperative gamma detection probing
was undertaken). In their limited patient data set,
they showed that the tumor-to-background ratios
of 18 F-FDG by gamma detection probing at the
skin surface remained relatively stable at the measured time intervals and remained relatively stable
up to the 7-h postinjection time interval. However,
they were concerned that the overall lower
18
FFDG count rates encountered at time intervals of
6–7 h postinjection of 18 F-FDG, secondary to the
normal physical decay pattern of 18 F-FDG,
“would be problematic” when applied to a clinical
application of intraoperative gamma detection
probing. Therefore, they concluded that the clinical application of intraoperative gamma detection
probing was “more suitable” at 1–3 h postinjection of 18 F-FDG as compared to 6–7 h postinjection of 18 F-FDG.
In 2006 and 2007, Gulec et al. [ 38 , 42 , 43 , 74 ]
reported on two consecutive series of patients,
including 40 patients undergoing intraoperative

gamma detection probing after receiving an intravenous injection of 7–10 mCi (259–370 MBq) of
18 F-FDG [ 38 ] and 25 patients undergoing intraoperative gamma detection probing after receiving an intravenous injection of 5–15 mCi
(185–555 MBq) of 18 F-FDG [ 42 ]. In both series,
Gulec et al. [ 38 , 42 , 43 ] reported observing a
nonsignifi cant trend toward an increased tumorto- background ratio of 18 F-FDG as the duration
of time from the 18 F-FDG injection to performing
intraoperative gamma detection probing
increased, with satisfactory count rates and lesion
detection capabilities up to 6 h of time after injection of 18 F-FDG. Therefore, regarding intraoperative gamma detection probing during
18 F-FDG-directed surgery, they concluded that
longer injection-to-probing time intervals “accentuated” the tumor-to-background ratio of 18 FFDG and resulted in “better lesion detection”
[ 38 , 42 ]. However, they also stated that “more
delayed intervals between FDG injection and
imaging might compromise image quality as a
result of lower count rates” [ 42 ].
Most recently, in 2014, our group at the Ohio
State University (Columbus, Ohio, USA) [ 74 ]
examined the question of extended injection-toscan acquisition time intervals in a retrospective
data analysis of a subset of patients undergoing
18 F-FDG-directed surgery. This data analysis
specifi cally looked at preoperative 18 F-FDG
PET/CT imaging and postoperative 18 F-FDG
PET/CT imaging of 32 individual 18 F-FDG-avid
lesions (from among a total of 7 patients) which
were not surgically manipulated or altered dur-
18
ing
F-FDG-directed surgery, and, for which, all
of these 32 individual 18 F-FDG-avid lesions
were visualized on both same-day preoperative
18 F- FDG PET/CT imaging and same-day postoperative 18 F-FDG PET/CT imaging. In this retrospective data analysis, both 18 F-FDG-avid
lesions and their corresponding background tissues were assessed on same-day preoperative
and postoperative 18 F-FDG PET/CT scans. This
data analysis demonstrated several important
time- dependent observations. First, 18 F-FDG
PET/CT imaging performed at extended injection-to-scan acquisition times of up to a mean
time of 530 min (i.e., approximately fi ve half-
18
lives for
F-FDG) was able to maintain a designation of good/adequate diagnostic image
quality deemed necessary for clinical interpretation. Second, the mean 18 F-FDG-avid lesion
SUV
value increased signifi cantly from pre-
max
operative to postoperative 18 F- FDG PET/CT
imaging (mean 18 F-FDG-avid lesion SUV
max
value; 7.7 preoperative to 11.3 postoperative; P
<0.001). Third, mean background SUV
max
value
decreased signifi cantly from preoperative to
postoperative 18 F-FDG PET/CT imaging (mean
background SUV
value; 2.3 preoperative to
max
2.1 postoperative; P = 0.017). Fourth, the mean
lesion-to-background SUV
ratio increased
max
signifi cantly from preoperative to postoperative
18 F-FDG PET/CT imaging (mean lesion-tobackground SUV
ratio; 3.7 preoperative to 5.8
max
postoperative; P <0.001).
The far-reaching implications of these collective time-dependent observations [ 74 ] appear
highly infl uential for guiding future direction in
18 F-FDG-directed procedural and surgical applications, as well as 18 F-FDG PET/CT oncologic
imaging. First and foremost, these timedependent observations justify the more widespread and integrated, real-time use of diagnostic
18 F-FDG PET/CT imaging in conjunction with
18 F-FDG-directed interventional radiology diagnostic biopsy procedures and therapeutic ablation
procedures, as well as with 18 F-FDG-directed
surgical procedures. These sorts of integrated,
real-time utilities for diagnostic
18
F-FDG PET/
CT imaging would facilitate periprocedural verifi cation of appropriate tissue targeting during
18 F-FDG-directed interventional radiology diagnostic biopsy procedures and therapeutic ablation
procedures and for perioperative verifi cation of
appropriate tissue targeting and completeness of
resection during 18 F-FDG-directed surgical procedures. Secondly but still importantly, these
time-dependent observations could have farreaching impact on potentially reshaping future
thinking regarding what represents the “most
optimal” injection-to-scan acquisition time interval for all routine diagnostic 18 F-FDG PET/CT
oncologic imaging.
