Abstract | 「I. はじめに」18F-labelled 2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose(18FDG)を用いたpositron emission tomography(PET)は, 局所ブドウ糖消費量(regional metabolic rate of glucose, rMRGlc)が神経膠腫(glioma)の悪性度と関連することから, 腫瘍イメージングの一つの有用な手法として知られている. しかし, 従来の18FDG-PETによるrMRGlc画像は, 18FDGモデルにおける速度定数が正常組織と腫瘍組織とで等しいという仮定に基づいて求められている. 速度定数, すなわちFDGの脳血液関門透過性を示すk*1, k*2とFDGの燐酸化速度を示すk*3, k*4は, 実際, 異常組織ではそれぞれ異なった値をとる. 特にk*3の値はhexokinaseの活性を表わし, rMRGlcと同様に腫瘍の悪性度との相関が考えられる. |

Abstract | Using dynamic positron emission tomographic (PET) scans, the values of kinetic rate constants in the [18F] fluorodeoxyglucose (18FDG) model were measured in tumor tissues in 20 patients with brain tumors (total;27 examinations). The subjects consisted of 15 cases with supratentrial gliomas and 5 cases with non-glial brain tumors. Glucose metabolic rate was also calculated from individual kinetic rate constants in the tumor tissue. In respect to histologic diagnosis, all rate constants were higher on the average in the glioma grade IV and the non-glial tumor groups than in the glioma grade II and III groups. Especially, the k*3, representing hexokinase activity for 18FDG, showed high value and wide deviation in the glioma grade IV. Discrepancy was found between k*3 and the estimated glucose comsumption values in several cases with either malignant or benign cerebral tumor. Analysis of the kinetic rate constants using 18FDG-PET dynamic scanning might be quite useful for interpreting tumor nature and predicting malignancy in combination with evaluation of glucose consumption. |
