Volume-Assisted Estimation of Remnant Liver Function Based on Gd-EOB-DTPA Enhanced MR Relaxometry: A Prospective Observational Trial
This study explored the potential of preoperative liver function assessment by MRI for predicting postoperative liver dysfunction and compared these results with the established indocyanine green (ICG) clearance test. This prospective study included patients undergoing liver resection with preoperative MRI planning. Liver function was quantified using T1 relaxometry and correlated with established liver function scores. The analysis revealed an improved model for predicting postoperative liver dysfunction, exhibiting an accuracy (ACC) of 0.79, surpassing the 0.70 of the preoperative ICG test, alongside a higher area under ...

Value of [18F]FDG PET/CT in Diagnosis and Management of Spondylodiscitis
Z Orthop Unfall. 2023 Oct;161(5):544-551. doi: 10.1055/a-2075-8873. Epub 2023 Sep 28.ABSTRACTVertebral osteomyelitis is the third most common form of osteomyelitis in patients over 50 years of age.Whereas prompt (pathogen-directed) therapy is crucially associated with better outcomes, the heterogeneous clinical presentation of disease with unspecific symptoms often delays adequate treatment initiation. Diagnosis requires a careful investigation of medical history, clinical findings and diagnostic imaging, including magnetic resonance imaging and nuclear medicine techniques.Due to its high sensitivity, [18F]FDG PET/CT is be...
