Nuclear medicine parathyroid imaging is important in the identification of hyperfunctioning glands primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT), but it may be also valuable before surgical treatment secondary (sHPT). Parathyroid radionuclide with scintigraphy or positron emission tomography (PET) a highly sensitive procedure for assessment presence and number glands, located either at typical sites ectopically. The pHPT mostly directed toward minimally invasive parathyroidectomy, especially cases...

To assess the role of [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose ([18F]FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) after rituximab and anthracycline-containing chemoimmunotherapy in patients with primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma (PMLBCL).Among 125 prospectively enrolled, 115 were eligible for central review PET/CT scans at completion standard chemoimmunotherapy, by using a five-point scale. Consolidation radiotherapy (RT) was permitted given to 102 patients.Fifty-four (47%) achieved...

Abstract Context Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of benign thyroid nodules has been gaining consensus. However, no solid information on its long-term efficacy is available. Objective To analyze the results single-session RFA. Design Retrospective longitudinal observational study. Setting Primary care center. Patients or Other Participants Adult outpatients who underwent a RFA and posttreatment follow-up least 3 years. Intervention Ultrasound-guided was performed after local anesthesia by...

Background Ultrasound (US) risk stratification systems (RSSs) have been developed to reduce the number of unnecessary fine needle aspirations (FNAs) thyroid nodules. These were designed primarily identify papillary carcinomas, thus their performance on follicular carcinoma (FTC) is debatable. The present study was undertaken investigate accuracy RSSs in selecting FTCs for FNA. Methods Patients with FTC who underwent US examinations between 2012 and 2018 2 institutions selected. images...
