## Background: Fluorine 18 fluorodeoxyglucose (fdg) has been shown to accumulate in inflamed tissues. however, it is not known whether vascular inflammation can be measured noninvasively. the aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that vascular inflammation can be measured noninvasively by us
## Background: [f-18]fluorodeoxyglucose (fdg)-positron emission tomography (pet) can measure the metabolic activity of tissues; fdg-pet may be able to predict response to chemotherapy by identifying changes in tumor metabolism. measurement of response to treatment may help improve survival in the m
