Infection with the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) may remain asymptomatic, leading to under-recognition of related disease, 2019 (COVID-19), and incidental findings in nuclear imaging procedures performed for standard clinical indications. Here, we report about our local experience a region high COVID-19 prevalence dynamically increasing infection rates. Methods: Within 8-d period March 16-24, 2020, hybrid studies asymptomatic patients who underwent...
Abstract Purpose Patients with fever and inflammation of unknown origin (FUO/IUO) are clinically challenging due to variable clinical presentations nonspecific symptoms many differential diagnoses. Positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) 2-deoxy-2-[ 18 F]fluoro-D-glucose ([ F]FDG) is increasingly used in FUO IUO, but the optimal diagnostic strategy remains controversial. This consensus document aims assist clinicians nuclear medicine specialists appropriate use [...
We are witnessing a widespread adoption of artificial intelligence in healthcare. However, most the advancements deep learning this area consider only unimodal data, neglecting other modalities. Their multimodal interpretation necessary for supporting diagnosis, prognosis and treatment decisions. In work we present architecture, which jointly learns modality reconstructions sample classifications using tabular imaging data. The explanation decision taken is computed by applying latent shift...
Abstract Purpose Advancements of deep learning in medical imaging are often constrained by the limited availability large, annotated datasets, resulting underperforming models when deployed under real-world conditions. This study investigated a generative artificial intelligence (AI) approach to create synthetic images taking example bone scintigraphy scans, increase data diversity small-scale datasets for more effective model training and improved generalization. Methods We trained on 99m...
Abstract Background Radioiodine‐131 (I131) therapy for differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) is generally a safe and effective treatment, but it has some potential side effects, which have been well described in adults less analyzed children. Our aim was to describe early late adverse events of radioactive I131 pediatric patients. Methods All consecutive patients ≤18 years treated DTC the period 1980–2015 were retrospectively effects radioiodine. Early include nausea/emesis, radiation...
Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) or sinus histiocytosis is a rare histiocytic disorder characterized by massive lymphadenopathy and with extranodal involvement in 25% to 43% of cases. The clinical course RDD unpredictable episodes exacerbation remissions that can last many years, treatment strategies be different according organ involvement. We report case 42-year-old woman followed for almost 10 years from the diagnosis who underwent seven 18F-FDG PET/CT. PET/CT has proven useful method...
Abstract Background We aimed to test whether the prognostic value of 18 F‐Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (FDG-PET/CT) in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) extends estimation systemic treatment response duration. Methods mCRPC patients submitted FDG-PET/CT four Italian centers from 2005 2020 were retrospectively enrolled. Clinical and biochemical data at time imaging collected, SUV max hottest lesion, total metabolic tumor volume...
Abstract Context The risk stratification of patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) is crucial in clinical decision making. most widely accepted method to assess recurrent/persistent disease described the 2015 American Thyroid Association (ATA) guidelines. However, recent research has focused on inclusion novel features or questioned relevance currently included features. Objective To develop a comprehensive data-driven model predict persistent/recurrent that can capture all...
