  • The added value of [F-18]FDG PET/CT in the management of invasive fungal infections 
    Ankrah, Alfred O.; Creemers-Schild, Dina; De Keizer, Bart; Klein, Hans C.; Dierckx, Rudi A.J.O.; Kwee, Thomas C.; Span, Lambert F.R.; De Jong, Pim A.; Sathekge, Mike Machaba; Glaudemans, Andor W.J.M. (MDPI, 2021-01-17)
    Anatomy-based imaging methods are the usual imaging methods used in assessing invasive fungal infections (IFIs). [18F]FDG PET/CT has also been used in the evaluation of IFIs. We assessed the added value of [18F]FDG PET/CT ...
  • Comparison of Fluorine(18)-fluorodeoxyglucose and Gallium(68)-citrate PET/CT in patients with tuberculosis 
    Ankrah, Alfred O.; Lawal, Ismaheel Opeyemi; Boshomane, Tebatso M.G.; Klein, Hans C.; Ebenhan, Thomas; Dierckx, Rudi A.J.O.; Vorster, Mariza; Glaudemans, Andor W.J.M.; Sathekge, Mike Machaba (Thieme Publishing, 2019-09)

  • Imaging latent tuberculosis infection with radiolabeled nitroimidazoles 
    Ankrah, Alfred O.; Glaudemans, Andor W.J.M.; Sathekge, Mike Machaba; Klein, Hans C. (SpringerOpen, 2016-04)
    In a previous paper, an overview of the use of PET/CT in the management of tuberculosis (TB) was provided and the potential role of nitroimidazole imaging in LTBI was considered [1]. During latent TB, dormant bacilli ...
  • Imaging of invasive fungal infections- the role of PET/CT 
    Ankrah, Alfred O.; Lawal, Ismaheel Opeyemi; Dierckx, Rudi A.J.O.; Sathekge, Mike Machaba; Glaudemans, Andor W.J.M. (Elsevier, 2023-01)
    Over the last decades, the population at risk for invasive fungal disease (IFD) has increased because of medical therapy advances and diseases compromising patients' immune systems. The high morbidity and mortality associated ...
  • Radionuclide imaging of invasive fungal disease in immunocompromised hosts 
    Lawal, Ismaheel Opeyemi; Mokoala, K.M.G. (Kgomotso); Kgatle, Mankgopo; Dierckx, Rudi A.J.O.; Glaudemans, Andor W.J.M.; Sathekge, Mike Machaba; Ankrah, Alfred O. (MDPI, 2021-11-06)
    Invasive fungal disease (IFD) leads to increased mortality, morbidity, and costs of treatment in patients with immunosuppressive conditions. The definitive diagnosis of IFD relies on the isolation of the causative fungal ...
  • Role of FDG PET/CT in monitoring treatment response in patients with invasive fungal infections 
    Ankrah, Alfred O.; Span, Lambert F.R.; Klein, Hans C.; De Jong, Pim A.; Dierckx, Rudi A.J.O.; Kwee, Thomas C.; Sathekge, Mike Machaba; Glaudemans, Andor W.J.M. (Springer, 2019-01)
    INTRODUCTION : Invasive fungal infections (IFIs) occur mostly in immunosuppressed patients and can be life-threatening. Inadequate treatment is associated with high morbidity and mortality. We examined the role of ...
  • The role of PET in monitoring therapy in fungal infections 
    Ankrah, Alfred O.; Klein, Hans C.; Span, Lambert F.R.; De Vries, Erik F.J.; Dierckx, Rudi A.J.O.; Sathekge, Mike Machaba; Glaudemans, Andor W.J.M. (Bentham Science, 2018)
    Positron emission tomography (PET) is a powerful diagnostic nuclear medicine imaging technique. PET allows in vivo detection of a wide variety of physiologic and pathologic phenomena and it offers a noninvasive tool for ...
