Enhancing Interoperability and Harmonisation of Nuclear Medicine Image Data and Associated Clinical Data
Nuklearmedizin. 2023 Oct 31. doi: 10.1055/a-2187-5701. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNuclear imaging techniques such as positron emission tomography (PET) and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) in combination with computed tomography (CT) are established imaging modalities in clinical practice, particularly for oncological problems. Due to a multitude of manufacturers, different measurement protocols, local demographic or clinical workflow variations as well as various available reconstruction and analysis software, very heterogeneous datasets are generated. This review article examines the current state of...

Prognostic Value of the De Ritis Ratio for Overall Survival in Patients with Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer Undergoing [ < sup > 177 < /sup > Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 Radioligand Therapy
Cancers (Basel). 2023 Oct 10;15(20):4907. doi: 10.3390/cancers15204907.ABSTRACTThe De Ritis ratio (=aspartate transaminase/alanine transaminase) has shown prognostic value in different cancer types. This is the first such analysis in prostate cancer patients undergoing radioligand therapy (RLT) with [177Lu]Lu-PSMA-617. This retrospective monocentric analysis included 91 patients with a median of 3 RLT cycles (range 1-6) and median cumulative activity of 17.3 GBq. Univariable Cox regression regarding overall survival (OS) included age, different types of previous treatment, metastatic patterns and different laboratory param...

Use of contrast-enhanced mammography for diagnosis of breast cancer
CONCLUSIONS: In the future, CEM could have greater importance for the diagnosis of breast cancer, as this imaging method has diagnostic advantages compared to conventional mammography. A great advantage of CEM is its availability. For those who use breast MRI, CEM is helpful when MRI is not feasible due to contraindications or other reasons.PMID:37889284 | DOI:10.1007/s00117-023-01222-8 (Source: Nuklearmedizin)
