$^{18}F$-FDG PET 검사를 위한 당뇨 환자의 혈당 조절에 관한 연구

A Study of Diabetic Control for Diabetic Patient in $^{18}F$-FDG PET

Purpose: $^{18}F$-FDG PET is to evaluate the tumor using glucose metabolism. Blood Glucose Level (BGL) is important factor that affects on a result of examination. But it often appears the distort result on diabetic patient due to a failure of BGL control. The aim of this study is to make a effective guideline for diabetic patient prescribed $^{18}F$-FDG PET and improve accuracy and reliability of examination. Materials and methods: A subject of study is 69 diabetic patients and divided them into 3 groups; 1) BGL is less than 120 mg/dl & performed PET, 2) BGL is over than 120 mg/dl & performed PET, 3) BGL is over than 120 mg/dl & not performed PET. And we investigated the type of diabetic medications and the time of dosage, whether they have meal or not. And we analyzed SUV of liver and mediastinum to recognize the effect of BGL on PET images. Results: As a methods to diabetic control, Amalyl showed high percentage of 27.5% in oral medication and Humulin R showed 14.5% in insulin. Their peak time was 2-3 hrs, 2-4 hrs and duration time was 24 hrs, 5-7 hrs. The number of that had a breakfast was 16, 7 mens (43.8%) couldn't perform PET as over 120 mg/dl and 5 mens (31.3%) performed PET as less than 120 mg/dl after they took a medication. When we set the SUV of normal for 1.5-2.0, 1.0-1.5 on liver and mediastinum, the percentage out of the range was 31.8%, 52.9%, 62.5% in 120-139 mg/dl, 140-159 mg/dl, 160-200 mg/dl respectively. Conclusions: We completed standardized guideline for diabetic patients. As a result of this study, improved customer satisfaction and increased economic benefits. It is expect to be a effective model in other PET centers.
