prof. dr.

I am a nuclear medicine specialist and always trying to implement innovative diagnostic and therapeutic methods in imaging. My main research interests involve infectious and inflammatory diseases, tumor-immunology, and development of new-targeted diagnostic tools for PET imaging. The latter focus is carried out in close collaboration with our radiochemists. Within the lymphoma research Groningen team we have a close collaboration with the department of hematology. The research is focused on finding new methods for diagnosis and therapy evaluation in several types of lymphomas. We have a special interest in post-transplant lymphatic disorders (PTLD). Furthermore, we are developing and evaluating several fields of radionuclide therapy, so called theranostics.

Clinical Performance Comparison of a Long Versus a Short Axial Field-of-View PET/CT Using EARL-Compliant Reconstructions
Published in: Molecular Imaging and Biology
PURPOSE: To ensure comparable PET/CT image quality between or within centres, clinical inter-system performance comparisons following European Association of Nuclear Medicine Research Ltd. (EARL) guidelines is required. In this work the performance of the long axial field-of-view Biograph Vision Quadra is compared to its predecessor, the short axial field-of-view Biograph Vision. PROCEDURES: To this aim, patients with suspected tumour lesions received a single weight-based (3 MBq/kg) 2-deoxy-2-[ 18F]fluoro-D-glucose injection and underwent routine clinical ( ∼ 15 min) scans on the Vision and 3-min scans on the Quadra in...

Performance of [18F]FDG PET/CT in Diagnosing Cyst Infections in Patients with Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease: A Systematic Review and a Bivariate Meta-Analysis
Published in: Diagnostics
BACKGROUND: Fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography ([ 18F]FDG PET/CT) has been suggested as a useful imaging method for diagnosing cyst infections in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). The aim of this article is to provide evidence-based data in this setting. METHODS: A systematic literature review (exploring several bibliographic databases) and a bivariate meta-analysis were carried out to calculate the pooled diagnostic performance of [ 18F]FDG PET/CT in diagnosing probable cyst infection in ADPKD. RESULTS: Ten studies (282 PET/CT scans and 249 patients) were included...
