Incidence of exclusive extrapelvic skeletal metastasis in prostate carcinoma on bone scintigraphy.

Background: Bone is one of the common sites of metastasis from prostate carcinoma. Bone scintigraphy (BS) is one of the most sensitive imaging modalities currently used for bone metastatic work-up. Skeletal metastasis in prostate carcinoma commonly involves pelvic bones but rarely involves extrapelvic-extraspinal sites.

Diagnostic Performance of FAPI PET/CT vs. F-FDG PET/CT in Evaluation of Liver Tumors: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Objectives: Primary liver tumors constitute one of the most common tumors. These are aggressive tumors with poor survival. Fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT), most commonly used functional imaging, shows limited tracer retention and poor tumor to background ratios (TBR).
