The anterior chest wall (AWC) non-traumatic pathologies are largely underestimated, and early detection through imaging is becoming increasingly important. This paper aims to review the major non-traumatic ACW pathologies, with a particular interest in imaging features and differential diagnosis.

- The study aimed to create a Delphi consensus statement among rheumatologists and radiologists focusing on the diagnosis and monitoring of axial spondyloarthritis (axial-SpA).
- A scientific board of 28 experts developed 23 consensus statements after identifying key issues through literature review and discussions, with participants voting on their agreement using a 5-point scale.
- The results showed a high level of agreement, achieving positive consensus on all statements after two rounds of voting, providing valuable guidelines for healthcare professionals in managing axial-SpA.
Aim: Preoperative workup of deep infiltrating endometriosis is limited in the evaluation of extragenital and extrapelvic disease and in distinguishing between the previous surgical scar and active lesion. Histological verification remains the gold standard for diagnosis. The aim of this study was therefore to evaluate positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) with an experimental estrogen receptor tracer (16α-[18F]fluoro-17β-estradiol; [18F]FES) for accurate staging and non-invasive diagnosis of the disease.

Methods: Thirty women with a histological diagnosis of endometrial carcinoma underwent magnetic resonance imaging. Unenhanced T2-weighted and dynamic contrast-enhanced Ti-weighted sequences were obtained.
