In our laboratory, a dedicated breast computed tomography (CT) system has been developed and is currently undergoing patient testing. The breast CT system is capable of scanning the breast with the woman lying prone on a tabletop, with the breast in the pendant position. A 360° scan ...
PREOPERATIVE LOCAL STAGING OF COLON CANCER USING COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY SCAN. PRELIMINARY REPORT. Background: The examination of olfactory function is mainly based on psychophysical methods. Although these methods are simple and easy to operate, they are subjective examinations. Therefore, the development of...

We report cases of breast cancer with extensive intraductal component (EIC), the extent of which could be detected only by contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) scan. One case was a 32-year-old woman who presented left nipple bloody discharge without breast mass palpation. Mammography (MMG...
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a radiotracer imaging method that is increasingly used in both the clinical care of breast cancer patients and in translational breast cancer research. This review emphasizes current and future clinical applications of PET to breast cancer, and highlights some tra...
If you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, you shouldn’t get a PET scan because the radiation could harm the baby or pass through your breast milk. After a PET scan, how long are you radioactive? Within a few hours of the PET scan, your body will get rid of the radioactive material by...
To compare outcomes for patients with recurrent or persistent papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) who had metastatic tumors that were fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) positive or negative, and to determine whether the FDG-PET scan findings changed the outcome of medical and surgical...
