I am writing to discuss the potential applications and challenges of utilizing ChatGPT (https://chat.openai.com), a state-of-the-art language model developed by OpenAI, in field nuclear medicine. holds promise for enhancing patient education, providing query resolution, offering decision support, supporting research, facilitating training education. However, it also presents certain that need be addressed. One significant potentials lies education.[1] By delivering accurate personalized...
Gallbladder carcinoma is characterized by poor prognosis. It spreads direct, lymphatic, vascular, neural, intraperitoneal, and intraductal routes. The most commonly involved organ the liver followed regional lymph nodes. Extra-abdominal metastases are comparatively rare. We present a case of solitary breast metastasis from recurrent gallbladder mimicking primary cancer in (18)F-FDG PET/CT.
Schmorl's node (SN) is a common entity characterized by protrusion of intervertebral disc material through break in the subchondral end plate vertebral body. They can show increased 99mTC methylene diphosphonate uptake on bone scintigraphy mimicking metastasis and be symptomatic. Differentiation SN from essential for appropriate patient management. Here, we present case where dorsal vertebra was found to because using single-photon emission computed tomography-computed tomography.
Neuroendocrine tumors constitute a heterogeneous group of neoplasms arising from the cells neural crest. We present rare case primary sinonasal neuroendocrine carcinoma in 61-year-old male patient where somatostatin receptor PET/CT with 68Ga-DOTANOC correctly delineated extent tumor as compared to contrast-enhanced CT, thereby changing management.
We assessed the value of N-ammonia PET-computed tomography (PET/CT) in recurrent glioma and compared results with those contrast-enhanced MRI (CE MRI).Fifty-two (mean age, 39.8±11.6 years; male, 33; female, 19) histopathologically proven previously treated patients clinical suspicion recurrence were evaluated 13N-ammonia PET/CT CE MRI. images qualitatively quantitatively (maximum standardized uptake value). Tumour to white matter (T/W), tumour grey (T/G) pituitary (T/P) ratios calculated...
Metatarsalgia is a general term for pain in the area of metatarsophalangeal joints. Sesamoiditis an uncommon cause metatarsalgia. It at sesamoid bones beneath head first metatarsal with inflammation or fracture. The diagnosis usually clinical, localized tenderness on palpation. Diagnosing metatarsalgia patients without this classical sign difficult. We present here such case 37-year-old lady whom sesamoiditis was diagnosed technetium-99m ((99m)Tc)-methylene diphosphonate (MDP) single photon...
To assess the efficacies of Tc-99m glucoheptonate single photon emission computed tomography-computed tomography (Tc-99m GHA SPECT-CT) and N-13 ammonia positron (N-13 NH3 PET-CT) in detecting recurrent glioma.Fifty-five consecutive, histologically proven, previously treated glioma patients (age, 38.9 ± 12.2 years; 61.8% males) presenting with clinical suspicion recurrence were evaluated SPECT-CT PET-CT. Images both qualitatively semiquantitatively. A combination clinicoradiological...
Purpose of the Study: The primary objective was to establish reference values for small-bowel and colonic transit within context routine standard solid meal gastric emptying scintigraphy (GES). secondary compare between anterior view geometric mean methods. Materials Methods: Twenty-nine healthy controls underwent GES, with additional imaging at 24 h if feasible. Small-bowel assessed using index (ISBT), calculated as ratio terminal ileal reservoir counts total abdominal 4 h. Colonic...
Abstract Purpose of the Study: The primary objective was to establish reference values for liquid gastric emptying and small bowel. secondary objectives encompassed comparing anterior view geometric mean methods, assessing gender differences, exploring potential correlations with age. Materials Methods: Thirty-five consecutive healthy participants (28 females 7 males) a age 42 ± 11 years (median, 42; range, 23–65) underwent scintigraphy at five intervals (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4 h), optional...
Background To assess the feasibility of a machine learning (ML) approach using radiomics features perfusion defects on rest myocardial imaging (MPI) to detect presence hibernating myocardium. Methodology Data patients who underwent 99mTc-sestamibi MPI and 18F-FDG PET/CT for viability assessment were retrieved. Rest data processed ECToolbox, polar maps saved NFile PMap tool. The reference standard defining myocardium was mismatched perfusion-metabolism defect with impaired contractility at...
Abstract Objectives The purpose of the present study was to evaluate outcomes with radiation therapy (RT) in multimodality treatment for inoperable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) portal vein tumour thrombosis (PVTT). Methods retrospective included 24 patients without extrahepatic metastases. had received drug eluting beads - transarterial chemoembolization (DEB-TACE) (n = 10) and systemic 14) before RT. dose fractionation 12–31.5 Gy 3–7 fractions 4–5 PVTT or plus liver parenchymal tumour....
Lymphomatous involvement of epididymis, primary or secondary to extensive extranodal disease, is a rare entity. We describe case non-Hodgkin lymphoma where staging F-FDG PET/CT demonstrated unsuspected lymphomatous epididymis and restaging FDG showed complete response after chemotherapy.
We report the presence of a differential acute tubular necrosis pattern on renography in renal transplant recipient who had received donor kidney with dual arterial supply. The proximal accessory artery was supplying lower pole which been demonstrated CT angiography. This possibility should be kept mind while reporting agents like 99mTc EC patients. Follow-up effectively spontaneous resolution retention and necrosis. case reiterates usefulness tracers for detection
Proteus syndrome is an extremely rare genetic disorder characterized by asymmetrical overgrowth of skin, bones, muscles, fatty tissues, and blood lymphatic vessels. We present a case six-year-old boy with proteus who underwent bone scintigraphy for suspected osteomyelitis. Bone ruled out osteomyelitis suggested cellulitis. In addition, it demonstrated striking characteristic deformities, which need to be emphasized. Knowledge these findings will avoid misinterpretation in patients syndrome.
Lymphedema of the lower limb can occur as a result lymphatic obstruction secondary to malignancy or filariasis in endemic countries. Resistant lymphedema be treated with microsurgical lymphovenous anastomosis, thus creating shunt. Patency these anastomoses cannot assessed conventional imaging modalities (lymphangiogram). Lymphoscintigraphy is useful for this purpose. Early visualization liver and blood pool activity indirectly confirms presence patent We demonstrate patency shunt 48-year-old...
