Parkinsonian syndromes are considered clinicopathological conditions that are challenging to diagnose. Molecular imaging with [18F]-FDOPA and [18F]-FDG contributes to a more accurate clinical diagnosis by evaluating presynaptic dopaminergic pathways and glucose metabolism, respectively. The aim of this study was to correlate diagnoses made from dual PET/CT with the initial clinical diagnoses, as well as during follow-ups in patients with Parkinsonian syndromes.

Article Synopsis
- Prostate cancer is a major health issue for men globally, and advanced imaging techniques, particularly PSMA imaging with PET/CT, are crucial for its detection and staging.
- This study compares the diagnostic accuracy of two imaging methods, Tc-EDDA/HYNIC-iPSMA SPECT/CT and F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT, in patients with confirmed prostate cancer, involving 18 participants with high-risk disease characteristics.
- Results indicated that while F-PSMA-PET/CT detected more lesions overall, Tc-iPSMA SPECT/CT was still effective for primary diagnosis and did not significantly alter clinical staging or treatment plans.
Objectives: Some studies show an increased risk of gestational diabetes mellitus for ABO blood groups. Others find a lower risk or do not identify any association. Inconsistencies may be due to the heterogeneity in the control for confounding variables.
