Abstract

Recent studies have focused on the development of total-body PET scanning in a variety of fields such as clinical oncology, cardiology, personalized medicine, drug development and toxicology, and inflammatory/infectious disease. Given its ultrahigh detection sensitivity, enhanced temporal resolution, and long scan range (1940 mm), total-body PET scanning can not only image faster than traditional techniques with less administered radioactivity but also perform total-body dynamic acquisition at a longer delayed time point. These unique characteristics create several opportunities to improve image quality and can provide a deeper understanding regarding disease detection, diagnosis, staging/restaging, response to treatment, and prognostication. By reviewing the advantages of total-body PET scanning and discussing the potential clinical applications for this innovative technology, we can address specific issues encountered in routine clinical practice and ultimately improve patient care.
