Investigation of tumor assessment between two PET systems using various indices: comparison between PET/CT and PET/MRI systems
This study aimed to determine the comparability of tumor-uptake indices of 18F-FDG in positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) and positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI). 2-[fluorine-18]-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) PET/CT and PET/MRI were performed on 55 patients with confirmed primary malignancies. PET/CT preceded PET/MRI in all examinations. Accumulation of 18F-FDG in lesions and normal organs (brain, liver) was measured. Maximum and peak standardized uptake values (SUVs; SUVmax and SUVpeak, respectively), metabolic tumor volume (MTV), and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) with ...

ctDNA-guided adjuvant treatment after radical-intent treatment of metastatic spread from colorectal cancer-the first interim results from the OPTIMISE study
CONCLUSION: The study was proven to be feasible and continues in the planned large-scale phase II trial. Results from the OPTIMISE study will potentially optimize the adjuvant treatment of patients undergoing radical-intent treatment of mCRC, thereby improving survival and reducing chemotherapy-related toxicity.PMID:37738268 | DOI:10.1080/0284186X.2023.2259083

The role of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose PET/computed tomography in the diagnosis and monitoring of large vessel vasculitides - a review article
Am J Nucl Med Mol Imaging. 2023 Aug 15;13(4):127-135. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTIn the last two decades, advancements in positron emission tomography (PET) technology have increased the diagnostic accuracy of patients with large-vessel vasculitis (LVV). Numerous systematic reviews and meta-analyses have been conducted, and patients suspected of having LVV can be diagnosed earlier with 18F-FDG PET. Two subtypes, giant cell arteritis (GCA) and Takayasu arteritis (TA), will progress when their response to corticosteroids and enhanced immunosuppression is inadequate. In the majority of patients, disease activity cannot be monit...

Novel technique of detecting inflammatory and osseous changes in the glenohumeral joint associated with patient age and weight using FDG- and NaF-PET imaging
CONCLUSION: Our study demonstrates the varying effect of limb laterality and BMI on FDG and NaF uptake at the GH joint. Adoption of molecular imaging will require future studies that correlate tracer uptake with relevant medical and illness history as well as degenerative change evident on traditional imaging.PMID:37736491 | PMC:PMC10509288

Proteus mirabilis: A rare cause of pneumonia, radiologically mimicking malignancy of the lung
CONCLUSION: Mass lesions suspected for malignancy should be managed with involvement of multiple medical disciplines, to ensure correct and timely diagnosis. This is to avoid miss-management.PMID:37736480 | PMC:PMC10509339 | DOI:10.1002/ccr3.7937

Non-Calcified Coronary Artery Plaque on Coronary Computed Tomography Angiogram: Prevalence and Significance
CONCLUSIONS: NCP is the initial precursor of calcified plaque and serves as a prominent marker of early coronary atherosclerosis. By detecting NCP during early stages, several measures can be implemented which can alter the evolutionary course of the underlying disease. This can potentially lead to a lower incidence of cardiovascular events.PMID:37736993 | DOI:10.3390/tomography9050140

Oncologic outcomes of segmentectomy versus lobectomy for clinical T1c radiological pure-solid non-small cell lung cancer
CONCLUSIONS: In T1c radiological pure-solid non-small cell lung cancer, segmentectomy was significantly associated with worse survival and insufficient loco-regional cancer control. Lobectomy remains the standard surgical treatment; meanwhile, segmentectomy should be applied with great caution.PMID:37738593 | DOI:10.1093/icvts/ivad152

The impact of intensified staging and combined therapies in locally advanced pancreatic cancer: a secondary analysis of prospective studies
CONCLUSIONS: The use of comprehensive pre-treatment staging, including laparoscopy and 18F-FDG-PET/CT scan, is an effective approach in identifying occult metastatic disease in LAPC patients. Our findings offer valuable insights into accurate staging and treatment efficacy, providing evidence-based support for optimal management strategies in LAPC patients.PMID:37737898 | DOI:10.1097/JS9.0000000000000755
