Safety injections of nuclear medicine radiotracers: towards a new modality for a real-time detection of extravasation events and 18 F-FDG SUV data correction.

The proposed metrics allowed to characterised the extravasation events in the first few minutes after the injection, providing an early SUV correction when necessary. We also assume that the characterisation of the DR-time curve of the injection arm is sufficient for the detection of extravasation events. Further validation of these hypotheses and key metrics is recommended in larger cohorts.
