Quantitative assessment of brown adipose tissue metabolic activity and volume using (18)F-FDG PET/CT and β3-adrenergic receptor activation

BACKGROUND: Brown adipose tissue [BAT] metabolism in vivo is vital for the development of novel strategies in combating obesity and diabetes. Currently, BAT is activated at low temperatures and measured using 2-deoxy-2-(18)F-fluoro-D-glucose [(18)F-FDG] positron-emission tomography [PET]. We report...
