BAT Structure and Function
  • One of two types of adipose tissue (white and
    brown)
  • Contains smaller fat vacuoles, higher number of
    mitochondria, more capillaries than white fat
  • Richly innervated by sympathetic nerves (b1, b2,
    b3)
  • Uncoupling protein-1 (UCP-1, thermogenin) in
    inner mitochondrial membrane uncouples oxidative
    phosphorylation producing heat energy
    (non-shivering thermogenesis) with ATP provided
    by glycolysis
  • Present in newborns (5 body mass) and
    hibernating animals most disappear in adulthood
    (not in mice)
  • Contribution to evolutionary success of mammals
  • Cannon B et al. Physiol Rev 2004 (Sweden)

BAT Distribution in Humans
  • Human depots differently located from than those
    in rodents
  • Main depots
  • Supraclavicular Fossa (USA-Fat), Axillae, and
    Neck
  • Mediastinal
  • Paravertebral, Para-aortic, Parahepatic,
    Paracolic
  • Suprarenal/Perinephric
  • Acutely cold-induced, stimulated by sympathetic
    nervous system
  • Almost all mediastinal/suprarenal BAT FDG uptake
    associated with concurrent supraclavicular/paraver
    tebral uptake
  • Neck (2.3) gt Paravertebral (1.4) gt Mediastinum
    (0.9) gt Perinephric (0.8), overall (up to 4)
  • females gt males children gt adults (15 vs. 2)

BAT Effect of Cold and Pharmacologic
Interventions on FDG Uptake
  • Female Lewis rats injected with FDG under
    conditions of
  • Control (no pre-medication and exposure to cold)
  • Exposure to cold (4 C for 4 h)
  • Propranolol, or Reserpine, or Dizepam
  • Cold Exposure 5x increase in uptake (vs.
    control)
  • Propranolol or Reserpine 70 decline in uptake
    (vs. control)
  • Diazepam no significant change
  • Tatsumi M et al. J Nucl Med 2004 (Johns Hopkins)

9
BAT Effect of Fentanyl and Diazepam on FDG
Uptake Gelfand MJ et al. Pediatr Radiol 2005
  • 69 pediatric patients received iv Fentanyl, or
    low (0.06 mg/kg) or moderate dose (0.1 mg/kg)
    diazepam prior to PET
  • Visual grading BAT FDG uptake
  • Fentanyl reduced BAT FDG uptake significantly
    (p0.004)
  • Low dose diazepam no effect (p0.98)
  • Medium dose diazepam indeterminate
  • Lower FDG uptake in agelt10 y compared to agegt10 y
    (p0.02)
  • baseline after fentanyl

10
BAT Effect of b-adrenergic agonistson FDG Uptake
  • Female Lewis rats injected with caffeine,
    ephedrine, or nicotine 30 min before iv FDG
  • Increase in BAT FDG uptake compared to control
    rats
  • Ephedrine 3.7x
  • Nicotine 7.9x
  • Nicotine Ephedrine 12.0x
  • Caffeine slight (pns)
  • Effects blocked by prior b-adrenergic antagonist
  • Patients should avoid nicotine, ephedrine before
    FDG PET
  • Baba S et al. J Nucl Med 2007 (Johns Hopkins)

11
BAT Effect of b-adrenergic antagonistson FDG
Uptake
  • 26 patients with FDG PET scans before and after
    propranolol (20 mg po 60 min prior to iv FDG)
  • No adverse effects in patients or on tumor FDG
    uptake
  • BAT SUVmax (plt0.0001)
  • Pre-propranolol 5.52/-2.30
  • Post-propranolol 1.39/-0.42
  • Post-propranolol scan improved image
    interpretation most notably in the mediastinum
  • Similar findings with 80 mg propranolol po 2 hrs
    prior to FDG
  • Parysow O et al. Clin Nucl Med 2007 (Argentina)
  • Soderlund V et al. Eur J Nucl Med Mol Imaging
    2007 (Sweden)

12
BAT Reduction of FDG Uptake with Warm Temperature
  • Uptake incidence of 13.7 during January through
    March and 4.1, during the rest of the year.
  • Warm clothing, avoidance of exposure to cold air
    during transit to PET facility,
    temperature-controlled room (75 F) reduces BAT
    FDG uptake significantly
  • Warm temperature reduces FDG uptake in BAT
    despite no effect by benzodiazepine
  • Cohade C et al. J Nucl Med 2003 (Johns Hopkins)
  • Garcia CA et al. Mol Imaging Biol 2006
    (Washington DC)
  • Garcia CA et al. Mol Imaging Biol 2004

BAT and FDG Uptake Summary
  • Non-shivering thermogenesis
  • Function of age, sex, ambient temperature,
    sympathetic nervous system
  • Supraclavicular, Axillae, Neck, Mediastinum,
    Paravertebral, Para-aortic, Parahepatic,
    Paracolic, Suprarenal, Perinephric
  • Avoid nicotine and sympathetic NS stimulatory
    agents
  • Can be reduced with warm temperature and
    pharmacologically
  • Warm clothing, avoidance of exposure to cold,
    temperature-controlled room (75 F)
  • Propranolol (20 mg orally one hour prior to FDG)
