Effect of Radioiodine Treatment on Quality of Life in Patients with Subclinical Hyperthyroidism: A Prospective Controlled Study
CONCLUSION: Patients with subclinical hyperthyroidism improve both biochemically and in their QoL after RIT, compared to controls. QoL assessment should have a wider role in clinical practice to complement biochemical tests and help with treatment decisions.PMID:38262472 | DOI:10.1055/a-2240-8087 (Source: Nuklearmedizin)

The Role of FDG- PET/CT in Detecting Bone Marrow Involvement in Childhood Solid Tumors
CONCLUSION: PET/CT has a high sensitivity and specificity for the assessing marrow involvement in pediatric solid tumors. We believe that PET/CT imaging should be performed as the first step in diagnostic staging, and BMB may not be necessary in every patient, only in patients with suspicious PET/CT results for bone marrow involvement. Additionally, for a more precise determination of bone marrow involvement, it is reasonable to perform BMB from FDG-retaining areas, using PET/CT as a guide tool.PMID:38190995 | DOI:10.1055/a-2224-9441 (Source: Nuklearmedizin)

Predictive factors for the outcome of radioiodine therapy in patients with benign thyroid diseases
CONCLUSION: Reduction of thyroid volume and the percentage of hypothyroid patients one year after RIT was primarily dependent on the type of disease. In MUFA and DISA we could identify volume reduction after 3 months as a reliable predictor for hypothyroidism while in patients with GD a short intra-therapeutic half-life, a large pre-therapeutic volume and active Graves' ophtalmopathy were relevant predictors for treatment failure suggesting an intensified follow-up scheme in these patients.PMID:38190997 | DOI:10.1055/a-2191-3113 (Source: Nuklearmedizin)

CXCR4-targeted Theranostics in Hematooncology: Opportunities and Challenges
Nuklearmedizin. 2024 Jan 8. doi: 10.1055/a-2194-9965. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTC-X-C motif chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) is overexpressed in a multitude of cancers, including neoplasms of hematopoietic origin. This feature can be leveraged by a theranostic approach, which provides a read-out of the actual CXCR4 expression in vivo, followed by CXCR4-targeted radioligand therapy (RLT) exerting anti-cancer as well as myeloablative efficacy. In a recent meeting of hematooncology and nuclear medicine specialists, statements on the current clinical practice and future perspectives of this innovative concept were proposed and...

Red Bull PET/CT
We report on a patient diagnosed with Hodgkin Lymphoma who was scheduled for [18F]FDG PET/CT as part of routine follow-up after treatment with two cycles of chemotherapy and mediastinal external beam radiation. Although the patient was advised to fast for at least four hours, an energy drink (Red Bull ) was ingested right after radiotracer administration, which led to increased uptake in the large skeletal muscles, thereby rendering this scan as non-diagnostic. After strictly following respective dietary recommendations, the repeated scan then provided excellent image quality and revealed response to treatment. In the pres...
