Background: The aim of the study was evaluation of F-fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) positron emission tomography with computed tomography (PET/CT) in the detection of active disease in the patients with suspected recurrence of the medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC).
Patients And Methods: F-FDG PET/CT investigation was performed in 67 patients, investigated from 2010 to 2019. _ Follow up was performed from 6 to 116 months after surgery (median 16.
Introduction: Differential diagnosis of parkinsonian disorders can be difficult on clinical grounds, especially in the early stage. Recent advancements in 18-F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) imaging reveals different patterns of regional glucose metabolism in idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD) and atypical parkinsonian syndromes, such as multiple system atrophy (MSA), progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and corticobasal syndrome (CBS), which may help differentiating between these conditions.
Purpose: To assess the utility of FDG-PET imaging in differential diagnosis of Parkinsonism in clinical practice.

Background: This paper is the short review of our preliminary results obtained with 99mTc-EDDA/HYNIC-TOC.
Material And Methods: The total of 495 patients with different neuroendocrine tumors were investigated during last few years.
Results: There have been 334 true positive (TP), 73 true negative (TN), 6 false positive (FP) and 82 false negative findings (FN).
Background/aim: The major one among the procedures for evaluating changes in the thyroid nodules is fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB). Thyroid scintigraphy is commonly used in diagnostic algorithm of nodules. Less than 5% of examined nodules show to be malignant.
