surveillance fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography to a detailed quantitative assessment of regional brain metabolism after chemotherapy can provide valuable information on individual chemotherapy-related neuromodulation and facilitate the development of strategies to minimize neurocognitive side effects. Copyr...
Unfortunately, this assessment is unspecific and may be observed in other conditions, particularly infections or treatment-related side effects [2,10]. Histopathology from mucosal specimens is also considered nonspecific [23,24]. In addition, endoscopy to obtain biopsy specimens carries an increased ...
Radiation pneumonitis is a common and clinically significant side effect of definitive thoracic radiotherapy (RT) [1]. Severe radiation pneumonitis has a mortality rate approaching 50% [2]. Diagnosis and management of radiation pneumonitis after RT are complicated because of the lack of accepted, sta...
Although the patients who have undergone 18F-FDG PET/CT examinations do not pose a real radiation hazard to the outside environment [10,11,12], some non-radiologist medical staff may be reluctant to come into contact with the patients because of concerns about potential radiation exposure. In ...
associated with potentially severe side effects and toxicity to multiple organs, whereas the azoles can cause adrenal dysfunction and hepatoxicity. Treatment options and their duration are, therefore, dependent on the severity of infection, the immune status of the host, and the side effects of the...

Corticosteroids were believed to reduce the inflammatory lung injury, however, its side effects include increased secondary infections, immunomodulation, and manifestation...
This strategy has the potential to tailor treatment in individual patients by identifying significant response to chemotherapy, which motivates the administration of a full course of induction chemotherapy with a higher threshold for suspending treatment due to toxicity and side‐effects.doi:10.1111/bju....
Our study clearly shows the affected brain structures which led to these side-effects. There are documented cases in which diphenhydramine has caused some kind of brain damage [ 1 , 2 ].doi:10.1007/s00259-004-1630-xHelmut W. OttWilfried Biebl...
Early recognition of LVV and treatment adaptation is essential because vascular complications (aneurysm, dilatations, ischemic complications) or treatment related side effects can occur frequently in these patients. 18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (2-[18F]FDG-PET/CT) ...
