Assessing the role of colonic and other anatomical sites uptake by [18F]FDG ‐PET/CT and immune‐inflammatory peripheral blood indexes in patients with advanced non‐small cell lung cancer treated with first‐line immune checkpoint inhibitors
ConclusionThere was no significant correlation between [18F]FDG PET/CT uptake in different anatomical sites, and in the tumor, and systemic immune-inflammatory indexes. The prognostic role of high left colon SUVratio deserves further investigation. (Source: Thoracic Cancer)

Cine MRI-based Analysis of Intrafractional Motion in Radiation Treatment Planning of Head and Neck Cancer Patients
Chemo-radiotherapy (CRT) and altered fractionated radiotherapy (RT) play an integral role in the management of advanced stage squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the head and neck (HN) as an organ preserving treatment strategy (1). To minimize late toxicity to organs at risks such as the salivary glands, pharyngeal muscles, and spinal cord, highly conformal treatment plans using intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) have become standard of care, allowing for safe delivery of steep dose gradients, from desired target coverage to organ at risk (OAR) sparing.

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma with heterotopic ossification, lymphovascular invasion, and nodal and pulmonary metastases in a 23-year-old Morgan gelding
This report describes a case of metastatic pulmonary squamous cell carcinoma in a 23-year-old Morgan gelding. The clinical signs displayed by this gelding in some ways mimicked the typical presentation of equine multinodular pulmonary fibrosis or thoracic lymphoma. The postmortem diagnosis in this case was head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, but a primary site of origin could not be ascertained. Cancer-associated heterotopic ossification (HO) was also identified in this case; this is an exceedingly rare finding with equine pulmonary neoplasia. Key clinical message: Careful physical examination should be undertaken in al...
