Detection of extramedullary hematopoietic tissue in a patient with beta-thalassemia major on Tc99m-sestamibi parathyroid scintigraphy
(2019)A 50-year-old man with beta-thalassemia major underwent Tc-99m sestamibi parathyroid scintigraphy due to elevated parathyroid hormone and calcium serum levels. Single-photon emission computed tomography imaging of neck and ... -
Development of Convolutional Neural Networks to identify bone metastasis for prostate cancer patients in bone scintigraphy
(2020)Objective: The main aim of this work is to build a robust Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) algorithm that efficiently and quickly classifies bone scintigraphy images, by determining the presence or absence of prostate ... -
Efficient bone metastasis diagnosis in bone scintigraphy using a fast convolutional neural network architecture
(2020)(1) Background: Bone metastasis is among diseases that frequently appear in breast, lung and prostate cancer; the most popular imaging method of screening in metastasis is bone scintigraphy and presents very high sensitivity ... -
Exploiting morphology and texture of 3D tumor models in DTI for differentiating glioblastoma multiforme from solitary metastasis
(2018)Ambiguous imaging appearance of Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) and solitary Metastasis (MET) is a challenge to conventional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) based diagnosis, leading to exploitation of advanced MRI techniques, ... -
Fanconi syndrome in the adulthood. The role of early diagnosis and treatment

Management of external jugular vein aneurysm: a systematic review
(2022)Introduction: Aneurysms of the jugular vein system are rare and high clinical suspicion is needed for diagnosis. External jugular vein aneurysms (EJVA) are considered innocent lesions that need treatment mainly for aesthetic ... -
Maxillary sinus inflammatory disease: Ultrasound compared to computed tomography
(1997)Fifty-six patients (age range, 15-79 yr, average, 37.0±18.5 yr), with a clinical and/or radiological diagnosis of acute maxillary sinusitis, were prospectively studied with ultrasound (US) and computed tomography (CT). The ... -
Noninvasive histologic grading of solid astrocytomas using proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy
(2004)Background: Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H MRS) constitutes a promising modality to assess intracranial pathology. We present our experience using this method in grading solid brain astrocytomas. Material and ... -
Osteoid osteoma
(2006)Osteoid osteoma is a relatively frequent benign bone tumour, consisting of osteoid and woven bone, and surrounded by a halo of reactive sclerotic bone, with an average size of the nidus less than 1.5 cm. It is a condition ... -
Reply to "the half-moon sign of the femoral neck is nonspecific for the diagnosis of osteoid osteoma."

Survivin autoantibodies are not elevated in lung cancer when assayed controlling for specificity and smoking status
(2016)The high mortality rate in lung cancer is largely attributable to late diagnosis. Case-control studies suggest that autoantibodies to the survivin protein are potential biomarkers for early diagnosis. We tested the hypothesis ...
