Figure 1.
Time activity-curve representing the mean of all patients, using iliac artery (red), prostate tumor (blue), benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) foci (purple) and normal prostate (green). Uptake is expressed in SUV (standardized uptake value). Tumor and BPH foci showed rapid uptake of 11C-Acetate in the prostate peaking ~3–5 minutes, followed by a relatively plateau after 10 minutes.
