Mechanism of action of FDG:
Answer: binds to glucose receptor.
Answer: binds to glucose receptor.
Notes:
- FDG is a glucose analogue that is actively transported across the blood-brain barrier (BBB)
and phosphorylated within cells. FDG uptake reflects the tissue glucose metabolism and is
usually high in high-grade tumors and relatively low in low-grade tumors.

D) Phase Contrast
To improve cardiac MRI:
A) Decrease pulse
B) Lower heart rate
B) Lower heart rate
Most common cause of MRI artifact:
A) Gradient strength
Notes:
- + long echo time → motion artifact.
Signal to noise ratio (SNR) in MRI is decreased by:
A) Increase number of acquisitions
B) Increase TR
C) Increase magnetic strength field
D) Decrease the slice thickness
D) Decrease the slice thickness
Answer: D
Notes:
↑ SNR
- ↑ Magnet
- ↑ FOV
- Thick Slices
- ↑ NEX
- ↑ TR ↓ TE
- ↓ Matrix
- ↓ Receiver Bandwidth
