In oligo-metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC), neither computed tomography (CT) nor bone scan is sensitive enough to detect small tumor deposits hampering early treatment and potential cure. Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is a transmembrane glycoprotein expressed in the neo-vasculature of numerous malignant neoplasms, including RCC, that can be targeted by positron emission tomography (PET) using PSMA-targeting radioligands. Our aim was to investigate whether PSMA-expression patterns of renal cancer in the primary tumor or metastatic lesions on immunohistochemistry (IHC) are associated with PET/CT findings using [Ga]-PSMA-HBED-CC (PSMA-PET/CT).

Background: Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) is coming up as a superior imaging tool for prostate cancer (PCa). However, its use in primary staging is still debated. The aim of this study was to assess accuracy of 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT in staging patients with intermediate and high risk PCa candidates to radical prostatectomy managed in the Prostate Cancer Unit of our institution.

Introduction: The use of oral nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for acute musculoskeletal pain should be at the lowest effective dosage and for the shortest duration to minimize potential adverse effects. This study evaluated treatment satisfaction, effectiveness, and tolerability of a low-dose diclofenac epolamine 12.5-mg soft capsule formulation (DHEP 12.

Purpose Of The Study: Ga-68-DOTA-peptides targeting somatostatin receptors have been assessed as a valuable tool in neuroendocrine tumors imaging using positron emission tomography (PET). A new selective and sensitive high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was developed for determining chemical and radiochemical purity of Ga-68-DOTATATE (PET) tracer. The identification of peaks was achieved on a symmetry C18 column 3 μm 120Å (3.
