PET-CTThyroid cancerRecurrenceThe aim of this paper is to discuss the risk of recurrence in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer and emphasize the importance of risk-group stratification, early recurrence identification and application of new imaging modalities, what is the PET-CT...
Incidental finding of ovarian teratoma on post-therapy scan for papillary thyroid cancer and impact of SPECT/CT imaging. A 41-year old woman post thyroidectomy and neck dissection is presented in this case. She initially presented goiter and an enlarged cervical lymph node. S... Anwar,Ali,Jamma...
F-18 FDG PET/CT imaging in the diagnostic work-up of thyroid cancer patients with high serum thyroglobulin, negative I-131 whole body scan and suppressed t... Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography imaging in the follow-up of patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma...
Performing CT to detect the lateral cervical LNM will effectively reduce the rate of missed diagnosis and improve surgical planning. Both US and CT are needed for neck lymph nodes staging preoperatively owning to low sensitivities. Introduction The incidence of thyroid cancer has been increasing in ...
SPECT /CT reduces the number of equivocal radioiodine foci encountered in the neck and body and allows more precise characterization of the etiology (benign vs. malignant) of focal radioiodine uptake, contributing to completion of staging in thyroid cancer by improved characterization of N and M ...
The utility of 18F-FDG PET/CT scan has been fundamental to detect suspected and unsuspected recurrence and to monitor response to treatment.关键词: Colorectal cancer Metastasis Positron emission tomography/computed tomography DOI: 10.1016/j.remnie.2012.04.004 ...
Thyroid cancer is grouped into four types based on how its cells appear under a microscope. The types are papillary, follicular, medullary and anaplastic thyroid cancers. They grow at different rates and can spread to other parts of the body if left untreated. ...
image resolution6. We delineated cancer boundaries based on consensus but did not evaluate interobserver agreement. Further studies using automated tumor segmentation and extraction of CT radiomics features are needed in the future. Third, feature repeatability and reproducibility investigations are currently...
CT has substantially improved the interpretation of radioiodine scintigraphy for evaluation of well-differentiated thyroid cancer, using both post-therapeutic and diagnostic 131-I administered activities. SPECT/CT contributes to risk stratification and completion of staging by improved characterization of N ...
Twelve of thirteen nodules had a low density on enhanced CT scan, ranging from 62 to 406%(mean: 158.2%) of enhancement. CONCLUSION Pediatric thyroid cancer tends to present with a higher T stage and metastatic lymphadenopathy. BRAF mutations were detected in 36.4%, which is a lower frequency...
