Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound - A Novel Non-Invasive Non-Ionizing Method for the Detection of Brown Adipose Tissue in Humans

BACKGROUND: Brown adipose tissue (BAT) consumes glucose when it is activated by cold exposure, allowing its detection in humans by (18)-F fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography with computed tomography ((18)F-FDG PET-CT). We recently described a novel non-invasive and non-ionizing imaging m...
