To evaluate the feasibility of PET/MRI (positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging) with FDG (18F-fluorodeoxyglucose) for initial staging head and neck cancer. The study group comprised 20 patients (16 men, 4 women) aged between 52 81 years (median 64 years) histologically proven squamous cell carcinoma region. underwent a PET scan on conventional scanner subsequent examination whole-body hybrid system. was administered intravenously prior to (267–395 MBq FDG, 348 average)....
Background:This study is an outcome evaluation of the Drug-Eluting-Bead-Chemoembolization (DEB TACE) compared to conventional TACE (cTACE) with Cisplation and Lipiodol in patients hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) Child-Pugh A Cirrhosis.
To compare targeted, transperineal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)/ultrasound (US)-fusion biopsy to systematic transrectal in patients with previous negative or first prostate and evaluate the gain diagnostic information biopsies addition targeted MRI/US-fusion biopsies.In all, 263 consecutive suspicion of cancer were investigated. All evaluated by 3-T multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) applying European Society Urogenital Radiology criteria. underwent transperineally (mean nine cores)...
To compare multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) of the prostate and histological findings both targeted MRI/ultrasonography-fusion biopsy (PBx) systematic PBx with final histology radical prostatectomy (RP) specimen.A total 105 patients cancer (PCa) histopathologically proven using a combination fusion Pbx PBx, who underwent RP, were investigated. All had been examined mpMRI, applying European Society Urogenital Radiology criteria. Histological from RP specimen compared those...
Evaluation of the quantitative accuracy MR-based attenuation correction (MRAC) in Philips Ingenuity TF whole-body PET/MR. In 13 patients, PET emission data from PET/MR were reconstructed using two different methods for correction. first reconstruction, vendor-provided standard MRAC was used. second a coregistered transmission-based map immediately preceding investigation with stand-alone Siemens ECAT EXACT HR+ scanner used (TRAC). The maps compared regarding occurrence segmentation artifacts...
Objectives To evaluate the value of multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mp MRI ) in detection significant prostate cancer ( PC a) and to compare transperineal /ultrasonography fusion biopsy (fusPbx) with conventional transrectal systematic (sysPbx) biopsy‐naïve patients. Patients Methods This multicentre, prospective trial investigated patients suspicion a undergoing fusPbx combination sysPbx (comPbx). The primary outcome was a, defined as Gleason pattern 4 or 5. We analysed results...
Abstract Background Two-dimensional echocardiography (Echo) is a feasible method for assessing left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) in clinical routine. However, LVEF assessment dependant on the user’s expertise and time consuming. Purpose We aimed to compare accuracy of an artificial intelligence (AI) system evaluating Echo exams calculating biplane against human interpretation cardiac computed tomography (CT), which was regarded as gold standard. Methods A diverse cohort patients...
Abstract Background Accurate measurement of left ventricular mass (LVM) with 2D transthoracic echocardiography (Echo) provides prognostic information, and aids in tailoring treatment plans. Purpose We sought to validate a fully automated artificial intelligence (AI) system for LVM Echo against human measurements computed tomography (CT), considered the gold standard. Methods 101 patients symptomatic aortic valve stenosis (AS), 48 mitral regurgitation (MR), 41 tricuspid (TR) underwent both...
To evaluate the feasibility of positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MR) with (18)fluoro-2-deoxyglucose (FDG) for therapy response evaluation malignant lymphoma.Nine patients lymphoma who underwent FDG-PET/MR before and after chemotherapy were included in this retrospective study. Average time between two scans was 70 days. The evaluated independently by nuclear medicine physicians. Ann Arbor classification used to describe stage. Furthermore, readers also rated PET...
The goal of this article is to quantify the influence truncation artifacts in magnetic resonance (MR)-based attenuation map (MRMap) on reconstructed positron emission tomography (PET) image volumes and propose a new method for minimizing influence.PET data sets 20 patients investigated Philips Ingenuity PET/MR were with without applying two different methods compensation (TC1 vendor-provided, TC2 newly developed). In patient group, extent quality (TC) was assessed visually MRMaps. three...
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Prostate cancer (PCa) risk stratification is essential in guiding therapeutic decision. Multiparametric magnetic resonance tomography (mpMRI) holds promise the prediction of adverse pathologies (AP) after prostatectomy (RP). This study aims to identify clinical and imaging markers pathology. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Patients with PCa, diagnosed by targeted biopsy mpMRI undergoing RP, were included. The predictive...
Correct characterization of focal solid hepatic lesions has always been a challenge and is great diagnostic therapeutic relevance. The purpose this study was to determine the added value hepatobiliary phase images in Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for differentiating lesions.In retrospective trial 84 consecutive patients underwent MR examinations. MRI conducted 64 with malignant (34 hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), 30 metastases) 20 benign (14 nodular hyperplasia (FNH),...
The vocal tract shape is crucial to voice production. Its lower part seems particularly relevant for timbre. This study analyzes the detailed morphology of parts epilaryngeal tube and hypopharynx sustained German vowels /a/, /e/, /i/, /o/, /u/ by thirteen male singer subjects who were at beginning their academic singing studies. Analysis was based on two different phonatory conditions: a natural, speech-like phonation phonation, like in classical singing. 3D models derived from magnetic...
To assess whether the application of a preparatory micro-enema reduces gas-induced susceptibility artefacts on diffusion-weighted MRI prostate.
<b><i>Objectives:</i></b> The study aimed to evaluate the prediction of Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) with respect prostate cancer (PCa) detection rate tumor aggressiveness in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)/ultrasound-fusion-biopsy (fusPbx) systematic biopsy (sysPbx). <b><i>Materials Methods:</i></b> Six hundred twenty five patients undergoing multiparametric MRI were investigated. findings classified using PI-RADS v1...
The aim of this paper is to describe a new automatic method for compensation metal-implant-induced segmentation errors in MR-based attenuation maps (MRMaps) and evaluate the quantitative influence those artifacts on reconstructed PET activity concentration. developed uses PET-based delineation patient contour compensate metal-implant-caused signal voids MR scan that segmented correction. emission data 13 patients with metal implants examined Philips Ingenuity PET/MR were vendor-provided...
