Do Gadolinium-Based Contrast Agents Affect 18 F-FDG PET/CT Uptake in the Dentate Nucleus and the Globus Pallidus? A Pilot Study

Gadolinium is toxic and to avoid its deposition in tissues, it must be chemically bonded with nonmetal ions to facilitate its excretion by the kidneys. High signal intensity in the dentate nucleus (DN) and globus pallidus (GP) on unenhanced T1-weighted MR images has been both morphologically and pat...
