Value of PET imaging in head and neck cancer
HNO. 2023 Sep 13. doi: 10.1007/s00106-023-01354-2. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe combination of positron-emission tomography (PET) with cross-sectional imaging in particular is becoming increasingly important in the diagnosis of head and neck tumors because, in addition to pure anatomy, the metabolic activity of tissue can be visualized and assessed. The combination of PET and computed tomography (CT) is already an established procedure in head and neck tumor patients in some indications, e.g., for primary tumor detection in cancer of unknown primary (CUP) syndrome or also after completed primary radio(chemo)therapy fo...

Understanding Factors Associated with Uptake of Lung Cancer Screening among Individuals at High Risk
This study aimed to identify factors associated with the uptake of LCS in high-risk individuals. Data for this study were obtained from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (n=11,297). Multivariable logistic regression models were used. Individuals with no health insurance (OR: 0.33, 95% CI: 0.19-0.58), no primary health care provider (OR: 0.40, 95% CI: 0.25-0.64), no chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (OR: 0.37, 95% CI: 0.28- 0.49), and racial/ethnic minorities other than Black and Hispanic (OR: 0.49, 95% CI: 0.31-0.78) were less likely to participate in annual LCS. Low-dose computed tomography uptake varied ...
