Metabolic Characterization of Anterior Mediastinal Masses by 18F-FDG PET/CT
Objectives: To evaluate the role of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for the diagnosis of anterior mediastinal masses. Methods: The oncological 18F-FDG PET/CT images...
18F-FDG PET/CT Imaging of Metastatic Testicular Choriocarcinoma Mimicking Gastric Cancer which Initial Symptom is Melena
Gastric metastasis of choriocarcinoma is rarely reported in the literature. This case report presents the case of multiple metastatic testicular choriocarcinoma mimicking gastric cancer, with melena as the initial sympto...
Collimator and Energy Window Evaluation in Ga-67 Imaging by Monte Carlo Simulation
Objectives: Gallium-67 (Ga-67) imaging is affected by collimator penetration and scatter components owing to the high-energy (HE) gamma-ray emissions. The characterization of penetration and scatter distribution is essen...
Risk Factors for Predicting Osteoporosis in Patients Who Receive Thyrotropin Suppressive Levothyroxine Treatment for Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma
Objectives: Endogenous hyperthyroidism accelerates bone turnover and shortens the normal bone remodeling cycle, which results in reduced bone density. It is estimated that suppressive levothyroxine (LT4) therapy also dec...
