    Notes: Abstract  Objective. To characterise the uptake of 18F in skeletal metastases from breast cancer using positron emission tomography (PET) and to relate these findings to the appearance on CT. Patients and design. PET with 18F and CT were performed in five patients with multiple skeletal metastases from breast cancer. The CT characteristics were analysed in areas with high uptake on the PET study. Dynamic PET imaging of the skeletal kinetics of the 18F-fluoride ion were included. Results. The areas of abnormal high accumulation of 18F correlated well with the pathological appearance on CT. Lytic as well as sclerotic lesions had markedly higher uptake than normal bone, with a 5–10 times higher transport rate constant for trapping of the tracer in the metastatic lesions than in normal bone. Conclusion. PET with 18F-fluoride demonstrates very high uptake in lytic and sclerotic breast cancer metastases.

    Notes: Summary A method for the determination of stereotaxic coordinates in radiography, e.g. angiography, pneumoencephalography or digital vascular radiography, is described. A special localization frame containing radiopaque structures and scales defines a diagnostic coordinate system. This frame is fixed to the X-ray-table prior to the radiographic procedure and two projections are obtained at arbitrary angles to each other. The focus-film distances do not how to be fixed. The target coordinates are then determined either by a simple graphical procedure or with the use of a digitizing x-y-table, by a computer. With the computer method the films are placed on the digitizing table and the target and a few reference points are marked using a cursor. From the relative positions the computer calculates the coordinates. With the special head fixation system, coordinates of structures visualized in radiographic examinations can be transferred to various therapeutic or diagnostic stereotaxic devices.

    Notes: Summary Suspected lesions in and around the sella were examined by CT in 129 cases. The diagnostic accuracy and various technical aspects of the method are described. The mean attenuation and enhancement after administration of contrast material are evaluated in craniopharyngiomas, chromophobe adenomas, meningiomas, aneurysms, dermoid cysts, an arachnoid cyst and a glioma. The choice of collimator and its use in relation to sellar dimensions, particularly the sellar depths, are emphasized.

    Notes: Summary Two head-fixation systems, one using Thermoplast and the other Lightcast were tested as to reproducibility by comparing stereotactic coordinates before and after CT scan and after removal and reapplication of the helmets. Helmets constructed of Lightcast were more consistently stable than those constructed of Thermoplast probably due in part to the dental fixation used with the former. With Lightcast the change in position of coordinates was consistently less than 3 mm, i.e. 2 pixels, which is within the tolerance of the system as a whole.

    Notes: Summary The changes of the enhancement of the lesion with time after intravenous administration of contrast medium were measured with computed tomography (CT) in 23 cases of acoustic neuroma. The pattern of high initial enhancement followed by a fairly rapid decrease is confirmed. A more rigorous study of the enhancement pattern using a mathematical description of the enhancement curve of the tumor as well as a measurement of the individual blood enhancement curve is discussed.

    Notes: Summary A ring detector positron camera system for CT of the brain is described. The system uses 95 NaI (Tl) detectors, arranged with cylindrical geometry, for the simultaneous detection of coincidences from 1900 detector combinations. With a new sampling technique an experimental system resolution of 7 mm FWHM has been obtained. The sensitivity was found to be 5300 c/s with a 100-keV energy threshold and using a 19.2-cm-diameter cylindrical phantom with a homogeneous specific activity of 1 μCi/cm3. A clinical study of blood-brain barrier damage using 68Ga-EDTA is reported.

    Notes: Summary Attenuation profiles across the petrous bone covering the whole internal auditory meatus (IAM) were constructed from the printouts obtained by computed tomography (CT) with narrow collimation performed on 12 patients with 13 acoustic neuromas. In healthy patients the attenuation profiles of right and left petrous bone were very similar in shape. The attenuation values of the individual pixels in the pixel columns of the printout located at the site of the porus and the IAM reflected the demineralization of the petrous bone and the widening of the porus and the IAM caused by the acoustic neuroma. A widening deep in the meatus was demonstrated in a patient with an intracanalicular tumor, and therefore it seems possible to make this diagnosis by CT scanning combined with the construction of attenuation profiles across the petrous bone. In the presence of unilateral acoustic neuroma there was a significant and characteristic difference in shape between the attenuation profiles of the two sides with generally lower attenuation values on the tumor side together with signs of widening of the porus and the IAM. In cases of bilateral acoustic neuroma comparison of the attenuation profiles can be made with mean attenuation curves obtained from scanning normal petrous bones. The prevailing physical limitations for demonstrating a narrow bony canal like the IAM with CT was experimentally analyzed using bone-simulating plastic material.

    Notes: Summary Four patients with radiologically normal pituitary gland were examined with positron emission tomography after the administration of (methyl-11C)-L-methionine. On a following day the examination was repeated with (methyl-11c)-D-methionine. The accumulation rate of L-methionine in the pituitary was measured, giving a value that was about twice that of normal brain tissue. The accumulation rate of D-methionine in the pituitary was almost a factor of 10 lower than that of L-methionine. In the normal brain tissue that ratio was 2.3. The study clearly indicates that the methionine uptake in the pituitary is stereospecific. 11C-D-methionine is freely distributed in the tissue without entrapment, whereas 11C-L-methionine is irreversibly bound. It is concluded that PET with 11C-L-methionine can be used to study amino acid utilization in the pituitary.

    Notes: Summary A head fixation system is described enabling exact transfer of positions between neuroradiological and therapeutic procedures. The key item of the system is a base plate that is rigidly attached to the patient's head, either by a plastic mould or screws onto the calvarium. The base plate may easily and accurately be attached to diagnostic or therapeutic units. Coordinates of target points in the various units are directly related through the exact application of the base plate. Procedures for the exact comparison of spatial information have been worked out. The system has been used for diagnostic procedures such as plain skull radiography, cerebral angiography, CT scanning, positron emission tomography, and gamma camera examinations, as well as for therapeutic procedures such as stereotaxic biopsy and radiation treatment.
