Benefits and drawbacks of CT scan as a triple rule-out exam in acute chest pain to exclude acute coronary syndrome, pulmonary embolism and aortic dissection
Ann Cardiol Angeiol (Paris). 2023 Sep 11;72(5):101641. doi: 10.1016/j.ancard.2023.101641. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTChest pain is one of the major causes for admission in the Emergency Room in most countries and one of the principal reasons for urgent consultation with a cardiologist or a general practitioner. After clinical examination and initial biological measurements, substantial patients require further explorations. CT scan allows the search for pulmonary embolism in the early stage of pulmonary arteries iodine contrast exploration. During the same exam at the systemic arterial phase, the search for aortic disse...

Characterization of single- and multi-energy CT performance of an oral dark borosilicate contrast media using a clinical photon-counting-detector CT platform
CONCLUSIONS: When evaluated at different tube potentials and VMI energy levels using a clinical PCD-CT system, DBCM showed consistently higher CNR compared to iodine versus water (a neutral contrast).PMID:37669507 | DOI:10.1002/mp.16713

Non-contrast computed tomography findings for identification of chronically occluded coronary artery bypass grafts
CONCLUSION: Evaluation of coronary bypass grafts for chronic occlusion on non-contrast CT based off vessel morphology is feasible and accurate for venous grafts. Potential use cases include low-intermediate risk patients with chest pain or shortness of breath for whom non-contrast CT was ordered, or administration of iodine-based contrast is contraindicated.PMID:37649280 | DOI:10.1177/02841851231196873

The Diagnostic Value of F-18 FDG PET/CT in Differentiated Thyroid Cancer Patients with Elevated Thyroglobulin/Thyroglobulin Antibody Levels and Negative Iodine Scintigraphy: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: There is moderate quality evidence demonstrating the high diagnostic accuracy of FDG PET/CT in detecting recurrence in patients with DTC with negative WBS and elevated serum Tg or TgAb levels. This evidence corroborates the current guidelines' endorsement of FDG PET/CT as a diagnostic tool in such patients.PMID:37597200 | DOI:10.1089/thy.2023.0264
