Aim: In addition to significant improvements in sensitivity and image quality, the recent introduction of long axial field-of-view (LAFOV) PET/CT scanners has enabled dynamic whole-body imaging for the first time. We aim herein to determine an appropriate acquisition time range for static low-dose [F]PSMA-1007 PET imaging and to investigate the whole-body pharmacokinetics of [F]PSMA-1007 by dynamic PET with the LAFOV Biograph Vision Quadra PET/CT in a group of prostate cancer patients.

Methodology: In total, 38 prostate cancer patients were enrolled in the analysis for staging or re-staging purposes.

Introduction: Although many lesion-based MRI biomarkers in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients were investigated, none of the previous studies dealt with the signal intensity variations (SIVs) of MS lesions. In this study, the SIVs of MS lesions on direct myelin imaging and standard clinical sequences as possible MRI biomarkers for disability in MS patients were assessed.

Methods: Twenty seven MS patients were included in this prospective study.

Background: Spontaneous episodic vertigo syndromes, namely vestibular migraine (VM) and Menière's disease (MD), are difficult to differentiate, even for an experienced clinician. In the presence of complex diagnostic information, automated systems can support human decision making. Recent developments in machine learning might facilitate bedside diagnosis of VM and MD.

Diagnosing patients with vertigo and dizziness is a challenge in primary care settings where laboratory examinations are often not available. This study uses data from patients with confirmed diagnoses of vestibular syndromes to develop and validate simple diagnostic prediction models for the primary care physician. We describe the implementation of these models into an application that may assist the practitioners with their clinical decisions.
