18F-NaF PET/CT of Obese Patients on a Lutetium-Yttrium Oxyorthosilicate PET/CT System: Patient Dosimetry, Optimization of Injected Activity, and Acquisition Time
18F-NaF PET/CT has a rapid single-pass extraction and fast clearance from soft tissues,
resulting in a good target-to-background ratio. This study aimed to establish the optimum …
