The correct prediction of heart disease can prevent life threats, and incorrect prove to be fatal at the same time. In this paper different machine learning algorithms deep are applied compare results analysis UCI Machine Learning Heart Disease dataset. dataset consists 14 main attributes used for performing analysis. Various promising achieved validated using accuracy confusion matrix. some irrelevant features which handled Isolation Forest, data also normalized getting better results. And...
Extragonadal choriocarcinoma in men is an extremely rare and highly aggressive malignancy. Inconclusive biopsies due to a high necrotic component often delay diagnosis. Here such case, which suggestive imaging findings on [18F]FDG PET/CT, raised level of serum β-human chorionic gonadotropin, gynecomastia clinched the
Aim To evaluate the utility of lower extremity 99mTc-MIBI imaging as a noninvasive correlate to functional capacity. Materials and methods Patients referred for stress myocardial perfusion with no known history peripheral artery disease (PAD) were included in study. scintigraphy was performed calf muscles at rest. Perfusion reserve (PR) bilateral calves calculated as: (average counts–average rest counts)/average counts × 100. Correlation PR assessed functional/exercise capacity [metabolic...
Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has become the standard of care for nodal staging in early-stage oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) as an alternative to elective neck dissection. However, role sentinel (SLN) and lymphatic drainage mapping with image-guided surgery not been studied locally advanced OSCC. Therefore, this study was undertaken evaluate identification contralateral cervical metastasis OSCC (Stage III-IVb).We have prospectively analyzed treatment-naïve patients advanced,...
Primary leiomyosarcoma of bone (PLB) is a rare tumor, constituting <0.7% all primary malignancies. It clinically aggressive with heterogeneous presentation and dismal prognosis. The most common pain swelling pathological fracture at times. Limited literature available on PLB only about 150 cases have been reported to date few case reports defining the utility 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18-F FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET-CT) in its management. We hereby present...
Abstract Peritoneal cancer index is an integral parameter for preoperative assessment of peritoneal disease. Current imaging modalities including 18 F-FDG PET/CT, though superior to CT, underestimate the disease extent, mainly due its high physiological background activity. Novel “cancer integrin” targeting with 68 Ga-trivehexin demonstrates limited activity in abdomen target-to-background ratio than PET/CT. Thus, we describe first case demonstrating potential utility novel αvβ6 agent burden...
White adipose tissue (WAT) usually shows negligible 18F-FDG uptake due to glucose utilization. However, corticosteroids alter the biodistribution of and increase in WAT. Here, we present a case diffusely increased WAT secondary high-dose corticosteroid therapy for nephrotic syndrome.
Breast cancer, in women, and lung men, are the most common origins of cutaneous metastasis. Lung cancer can metastasize to any organ but mostly contralateral lung, liver, adrenal gland, bones, brain. Over 1-12% patients with develop skin Non-small cell includes 87% cases. Adenocarcinomas subtype accounts for approximately 40% all cancers is histology women. A woman's lifetime risk developing 1 16 women lower than that a man (1 13 men). The survival rates usually higher those men. Herein, we...
Phyllodes tumor (PT) represents a rare type of breast arising from the stromal component rather than epithelium. Metastatic spread occurs hematogenously, with lung, bone, brain, and liver being most common sites. We present 18F-FDG PET/CT scan one such case phyllodes showing cardiac pancreatic metastases, which are an extremely occurrence.
Abstract 18 F-FDG PET/CT being a whole-body technique can detect multiple other critical nononcological findings. Various cardiac disorders identified incidentally on have been reported to help in timely management and improve overall patient care. We hereby present one such case where performed for workup of carcinoma lung revealed abnormal myocardial FDG uptake the anteroseptal apical region, which raised suspicion ischemia as hot spot imaging. On coronary angiography, artery disease was...
Abstract Differentiated thyroid carcinoma constitutes over 90% of all cancers. The standard treatment approach involves total or near-total thyroidectomy with without neck dissection followed by 131 I whole-body scintigraphy (WBS) to detect local distant metastases. Radioiodine offers high sensitivity and specificity for detection metastatic disease in well differentiated carcinoma. However, despite its accuracy, WBS demonstrates false-positive results, mostly at inflammatory infective site....
Introduction Cancer exerts a substantial influence on the body's metabolism through varied mechanisms, instigating metabolic reprogramming that maintains unchecked growth and survival of cancer cells, consequently perturbing diverse parameters. The introduction positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT), delivering detailed insights into both morphological aspects, has brought about revolutionary shift in modern detection. Exploring potential connection between PET-CT features...
68 Ga-PSMA (prostate-specific membrane antigen)-HBED-CC (N,N'-bis[2-hydroxy-5-(carboxyethyl)benzyl]ethylenediamine-N,N'-diacetic acid) PET/CT is the new advancement in oncological imaging. However, false-positive uptake can be seen benign lesions on PET/CT. We describe a rare case of intense an enchondroma confirmed MRI.
Aim Diagnosing movement disorders can be challenging owing to their similar clinical presentations with other neurodegenerative and basal ganglia disorders, like idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD), essential tremors (ET), vascular parkinsonism, multiple system atrophy (MSA), progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). Technetium-99m labeled tropane derivative (99mTc-TRODAT-1) imaging help in diagnosing at an early stage initiation of the treatment. The current study aimed evaluate role...
Bone is one of the common sites metastasis from prostate carcinoma. scintigraphy (BS) most sensitive imaging modalities currently used for bone metastatic work-up. Skeletal in carcinoma commonly involves pelvic bones but rarely extrapelvic-extraspinal sites.
Oncocytic adenomas are rare benign tumors that typically originate in organs such as the kidneys, thyroid, parathyroid, salivary glands, or pituitary gland. adenoma of adrenal gland is extremely rare. It often shows heterogeneous, nonspecific features on anatomic imaging, well high
Thyroid gland metastases from nonthyroidal malignancies are extremely rare. The most common primary associated with metastasis to thyroid include renal cell carcinoma, colorectal lung cancer, and breast cancer. Metastasis rarely arises laryngeal presence of is invariable poor prognosis thus, should be differentiated malignancy. Hereby, we have one such case cancer diagnosed on 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography scan.
Hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS) is a rare pulmonary vascular complication of chronic liver disease characterized by dilatation capillaries leading to shunting and systemic hypoxemia. Diagnosis HPS requires documentation intrapulmonary vasodilation (IPVD), the two most common imaging studies performed for detection IPVD include transthoracic contrast echocardiography (TTCE) 99m-Tc-macroaggregated albumin scintigraphy (99mTc-MAA scan). TTCE has high sensitivity thus, preferred initial...
Abstract Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is one of the most common malignancies worldwide. Locoregional nodal involvement by OSCC commonly encountered. Current conventional and functional imaging modalities have limited diagnostic accuracy in assessment, particularly head neck cancer. Thus, definitive management customarily addresses locoregional nodes along with primary malignancy. However, OSCC, tongue cancer, shows erratic lymphatic drainage thus requires extensive bilateral...
White adipose tissue (WAT) generally has negligible glucose utilization and thus, shows no or insignificant Fluorine-18 fluoro D-glucose (FDG) uptake. However, corticosteroids can cause altered biodistribution of FDG with increased uptake in WAT. We hereby describe a case immune complex-mediated glomerulonephritis showing diffusely WAT secondary to high-dose corticosteroid therapy.
The incidence of port-site metastases (PSMs) varies with the tumor type adenocarcinoma having a high incidence. However, it is rarely seen in urological malignancies and more so renal cell carcinoma (RCC). We hereby describe one such case PSM after laparoscopic radical nephrectomy for RCC, which was detected on 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography.
