Chronic Progressive Dyspnea in a 71-Year-Old Man: A Diagnostic Ithaca After 8 Years of Consultation
(2020)Case Presentation: A 71-year-old ex-bus driver (ex-smoker, 20 pack-years) was admitted for the first time to the respiratory department because of chronic dry cough and progressive exertional dyspnea with insidious onset ... -
Correlation of spleen metabolism assessed by 18F-FDG PET with serum interleukin-2 receptor levels and other biomarkers in patients with untreated sarcoidosis
(2016)Background The objective of our study was to assess the possible relationship between splenic F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) uptake and other established biochemical markers of sarcoidosis activity. Patients and methods ... -
Double adenomas of the pituitary: an imaging, pathological, and clinical diagnostic challenge
(2019)Double and multiple adenomas of the pituitary are composed of two or more distinct tumors located in the same gland. They represent uncommon lesions measuring less than 1 cm, reported as having a low incidence in autopsies ... -
EANM procedural guidelines for PET/CT quantitative myocardial perfusion imaging
(2021)The use of cardiac PET, and in particular of quantitative myocardial perfusion PET, has been growing during the last years, because scanners are becoming widely available and because several studies have convincingly ... -
Fahr's syndrome due to hypoparathyroidism revisited: A case of parkinsonism and a review of all published cases
(2021)Introduction: Fahr's syndrome due to hypoparathyroidism refers to bilateral basal ganglia (BG) calcifications and manifests with movement disorders, seizures, cognitive and behavioral symptoms. Case presentation: We report ... -
FDG-PET for detecting local tumor recurrence of ablated liver metastases: a diagnostic meta-analysis
(2012)Context: Scanty reports have focused on FDG-PET after radiofrequency ablation (RFA), for recurrence of hepatic metastases. Objective: To assess FDG-PET diagnostic accuracy on detection of recurrent hepatic lesions. Methods: ... -
Imaging predictive factors of abdominal aortic aneurysm growth
(2021)Background: Variable imaging methods may add important information about abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) progression. The aim of this study is to assess available literature data regarding the predictive imaging factors ... -
