To describe magnetic resonance (MR) imaging features of pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (PanNENs) according to their grade and tumor-nodes-metastases stage by comparing them histopathology determine the accuracy MR in predicting biological behavior.This study was approved our institutional review board; requirement for informed patient consent waived due retrospective nature study. Preoperative examinations 55 PanNEN patients (29 men, 26 women; mean age 57.6 years, range 21-83 years)...
Objectives 68Ga-DOTATOC (Ga) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed (CT) is recommended in the workup of pancreas neuroendocrine tumors (PanNETs); evidence suggests that 18F-FDG (F) PET/CT can also provide prognostic information. Aims this study were to assess role combined Ga- and F-PET/CT evaluation grade (G) 1–2 PanNETs test correlation between positivity tumor grade. Methods Preoperative 35 patients with surgically resected G1-2 evaluated. For grading, 2010 World Health Organization...
Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) can depict random motions of water molecules in biological tissues during magnetic resonance (MR) examinations. Few papers have tested its application to pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (PanNENs). The aim this paper is assess the clinical value DWI regarding identification and characterization PanNENs diagnosis liver metastases.Preoperative MR examinations 30 PanNEN patients were retrospectively reviewed; with pathologically proven ductal adenocarcinoma...
To evaluate modifications of perfusional parameters assessed by perfusion computed tomography (P-CT) liver metastases (LM) from pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PanNETs) during everolimus treatment.All patients with LMs G1-2 PanNETs undergoing treatment between January 2013 and 2015 were prospectively evaluated P-CT at baseline, after 2 4 months therapy. Size, perfusion, blood volume (BV), peak enhancement intensity (PEI) time to for each lesion calculated.A total 33 in nine evaluated:...
The Journal of Cancer Metastasis and Treatment is an open access journal focused on cancer metastasis treatment, including the occurrence, development, progression, metastasis, treatment oncologic disease. It covers basic, translational clinical research related to cell biology, genomics, precision medicine, oncology internal radiotherapy radiology, obstetrics gynecology, pediatrics, surgery, hematology, neurooncology, etc.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness digital image subtraction contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance (MR) images for detection and characterization pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (PanNENs).Magnetic examinations 50 histologically verified PanNENs were retrospectively evaluated by 2 radiologists; ductal adenocarcinomas included as a control group. Late arterial phase correspondent subtracted analyzed. Tumor detectability on subjective 3-point scale contrast-to-noise ratios...
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a syndrome characterized by severe hyperinflammation due to an overwhelming ineffective immune response different triggers. Most important symptoms are fever, hepatosplenomegaly and cytopenias. Biochemical signs include elevated ferritin, hypertriglyceridemia low fibrinogen. Hemophagocytosis in the bone marrow hallmark of this syndrome. Based on pathogenetic mechanism, it can be classified into primary (inherited) or secondary (acquired) HLH. We...
