Neuroendocrine tumors of the pancreas
Radiologie (Heidelb). 2023 Nov 10. doi: 10.1007/s00117-023-01231-7. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCLINICAL/METHODOLOGICAL ISSUE: Neuroendocrine tumors (NET) of the pancreas fall into the group of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP-NEN). The assignment of imaging morphological criteria to this heterogeneous group of complex tumors is often difficult.STANDARD RADIOLOGICAL METHODS: Diagnostic ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography-CT (PET/CT) are available for the detection of pancreatic NET (also referred to as NEN) and for the diagnosis of sp...

Autoimmune pancreatitis versus pancreatic cancer
Radiologie (Heidelb). 2023 Nov 10. doi: 10.1007/s00117-023-01240-6. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCLINICAL ISSUE: Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is classified as a distinct form of pancreatitis according to the guidelines. It is characterized by imaging morphologic and histologic features and is associated with extrapancreatic manifestations in type 1 IgG 4-associated disease. Symptoms and findings almost always improve with administration of steroids. Differentiation from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is required, particularly in the presence of AIP with focal parenchymal involvement.STANDARD RADIOLOGIC PROCEDURES: If A...

Value of PET imaging in head and neck cancer
Radiologie (Heidelb). 2023 Nov 8. doi: 10.1007/s00117-023-01236-2. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe combination of positron-emission tomography (PET) with cross-sectional imaging in particular is becoming increasingly important in the diagnosis of head and neck tumors because, in addition to pure anatomy, the metabolic activity of tissue can be visualized and assessed. The combination of PET and computed tomography (CT) is already an established procedure in head and neck tumor patients in some indications, e.g., for primary tumor detection in cancer of unknown primary (CUP) syndrome or also after completed primary radio(...

Clinical Applications of Radiomics in Nuclear Medicine
Nuklearmedizin. 2023 Nov 7. doi: 10.1055/a-2191-3271. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTRadiomics is an emerging field of artificial intelligence that focuses on the extraction and analysis of quantitative features such as intensity, shape, texture and spatial relationships from medical images. These features, often imperceptible to the human eye, can reveal complex patterns and biological insights. They can also be combined with clinical data to create predictive models using machine learning to improve disease characterization in nuclear medicine.
