Diagnostic value of 18F-FDG PET/CT in primary and metastatic renal tumors: a pilot studyClinical and Translational Imaging - - Trang 1-7 - 2023
Zhenyan Ye, Yutang Yao, Jiaqi Shen, Jun Dang, Shiwei Qing, Xiao Jiang, Xiaoxiong Wang, Hao Lu, Shirong Chen, Zhuzhong Cheng
We aimed to evaluate 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computerized tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) derived parameters in primary and metastatic renal tumors. A total of 47 patients with renal malignant tumors who underwent assessment in our department between December 2015 and March 2022 were enrolled in this study. The diagnoses were confirmed by biopsy or surgical resection plus h...... hiện toàn bộ
Dual-tracer imaging of malignant bone involvement using PETClinical and Translational Imaging - Tập 3 - Trang 123-131 - 2015
Farshad Moradi, Andrei Iagaru
Despite widespread use of PET/CT in oncological imaging, bone scintigraphy has remained the mainstay of imaging osseous involvement in certain malignancies such as advanced breast cancer. Osseous lesions and particularly blastic metastases may have low or variable uptake on 18F-FDG PET. 18F-fluoride PET has higher sensitivity and superior resolution and specificity compared to bone scintigraphy, ...... hiện toàn bộ

Abstract
Purpose
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a nuclear imaging technique that uses radiotracers to visualize metabolic processes of interest across different organs, to diagnose and manage diseases, and monitor therapeutic response. This systematic review aimed to characterize the value of...... hiện toàn bộ
Thyroid remnant ablation in differentiated thyroid carcinoma: when and howClinical and Translational Imaging - Tập 1 Số 3 - Trang 195-203 - 2013
Verburg, Frederik A., Hänscheid, Heribert, Luster, Markus
131I ablation is considered an effective and safe adjuvant therapy modality for differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC), although there is an ongoing debate about the need for 131I ablation in patients without lymph node or distant metastases and with low stages of the primary (pT1-2) tumor. However, on the basis of evidence from retrospective studies and pending the results of ongoing controlled pros...... hiện toàn bộ
Systematic review of in vivo microorganisms imaging with labeled vitamins, bacteriophages and oligomersClinical and Translational Imaging - Tập 4 - Trang 265-272 - 2016

Infection is always accompanied by inflammation and the real challenge is the ability to discriminate between infection and inflammation, this represents the “condicio sine qua non” for choosing the correct therapy. The role of the nuclear physician should be that to choose the appropriate radiopharmaceutical for each patient’s condition, to administer the imaging agent, to acquire scintigraphic i...... hiện toàn bộ
Hypoxia in cervical cancer: from biology to imagingClinical and Translational Imaging - Tập 5 - Trang 373-388 - 2017
Heidi Lyng, Eirik Malinen
Hypoxia imaging may improve identification of cervical cancer patients at risk of treatment failure and be utilized in treatment planning and monitoring, but its clinical potential is far from fully realized. Here, we briefly describe the biology of hypoxia in cervix tumors of relevance for imaging, and evaluate positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques tha...... hiện toàn bộ
