<sup>18</sup>F-labeled somatostatin analogs (SSAs) could represent a valid alternative to the current gold standard, <sup>68</sup>Ga-labeled SSAs, for receptor imaging in patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), given their logistic advantages. Recently, <sup>18</sup>F-AlF-NOTA-octreotide (<sup>18</sup>F-AlF-OC) has emerged as promising candidate, but thorough comparison <sup>68</sup>Ga-DOTA-SSA large patient groups is needed.

Q.Clear is a block sequential regularized expectation maximization (BSREM) penalized-likelihood reconstruction algorithm for PET. It tries to improve image quality by controlling noise amplification during reconstruction. In this study, the properties of BSREM were compared ordered-subset (OSEM) both phantom and patient data acquired on state-of-the-art PET/CT.The NEMA IQ whole-body study GE DMI 3-rings system in list mode different datasets with varying levels generated. Phantom was...
This study compares inter- and intraobserver agreement between [18F]AlF-NOTA-octreotide ([18F]AlF-OC) [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-somatostatin analogues (SSAs) in PET/CT imaging for neuroendocrine neoplasm (NEN) patients. is a secondary endpoint analysis from our multicenter trial (clin trial.gov identifier: NCT04552847) including 75 NEN patients who received both [68Ga]Ga-DOTATATE (n = 56) or [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-NOC 19) [18F]AlF-OC PET imaging. Five readers assessed lesion detection characterization across...

Shallow-depth sequencing of cell-free DNA, a cheap and standardized approach to obtain molecular information on tumors non-invasively, is insufficiently explored for lymphoma diagnosis disease follow-up. This study collected 318 samples, including longitudinal liquid paired solid biopsies, from prospectively recruited cohort 38 Hodgkin (HL) 85 aggressive B-cell non- HL patients, represented by 81 diffuse large (DLBCL) cases. Following sequencing, copy number alterations viral read fractions...
Patients diagnosed with radioiodine refractory (RAI-R) thyroid carcinoma (TC) have a significantly worse prognosis than patients radiosensitive TC. These malignancies are often dedifferentiated, hindering the effectiveness of iodine-based imaging. Additionally, role metabolic imaging using [
Abstract Radiation myositis is an infrequent late adverse effect of radiotherapy (RT), more commonly seen after hypofractionated regimens. We present the case a 52-year-old woman with oligorecurrent metastatic melanoma who, several months receiving local RT, developed painful swelling at irradiated site. As integral part routine oncologic follow-up, 18 F-FDG PET/CT allowed accurate visualization affected region and when matched RT treatment plans clearly illustrated their apparent overlap....
As the spatial resolution of positron emission tomography (PET) scanners improves, understanding radiotracer distributions in tissues at high resolutions is important. Hence, we propose a method for co-registration high-resolution ex vivo specimen PET images, combined with computed (CT) and corresponding histopathology.
Prostate carcinoma is the most common cancer in men. After local therapy, disease recurs many patients. A choline PET/CT indicated case of biochemical relapse prostate to determine site recurrence (local and/or distant) and help select next line therapy. Choline PET-CT also known show an elevated uptake hyperfunctioning parathyroid adenoma. This report shows difficulty distinguish between both entities if they occur simultaneously oncologic patient.
OBJECTIVE:To determine the effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on brain metabolism and seizure frequency. BACKGROUND:Low-frequency rTMS targeted to epileptic focus may reduce frequency. We hypothesized that changes in metabolism, which have been observed healthy controls after rTMS, could be a biomarker anti-epileptic activity rTMS. METHODS:We performed double-blind, sham controlled, cross-over trial 0.5 Hz over 11 patients with well-characterized neocortical...
The use of 18F-FDG PET/CT to evaluate patients with multiple myeloma. Detection bone lesions are important diagnose In this study we investigate the role an exam. Fifteen newly diagnosed myeloma were included in retrospective study. A was performed at diagnosis and after induction therapy. response a treatment is examined by semi-quantitative parameters (standardised uptake values) volumetric (metabolic tumor volume total lesion glycolysis). aim these for evaluation risk assessment...
