Purpose: Comparing mpMRI and Ga-PSMA-PET/MRI in primary staging of PCa and investigating the value of quantitative mpMRI-measurements for prediction of extracapsular extension and N-metastases.
Methods: Patients with PCa undergoing Ga-PSMA-PET/MRI and mpMRI during January 2016 to February 2019 were retrospectively included. Two readers each on Ga-PSMA-PET/MRI or mpMRI rated extraprostatic extension (≥T3) and regional lymph-node-metastasis (N1) on a Likert-scale.
A 78-year-old man with multiple squamous cell carcinomas of the skin underwent 18F-FDG-PET/CT for restaging after 4 cycles of cemiplimab. The scan showed new disseminated FDG-avid skin lesions. Dermatologic examination and biopsy revealed bullous pemphigoid.

Methods: Sixty-two patients who underwent 3 T MRI before PD between 2008 and 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. POPF was graded and split into clinically relevant POPF (CR-POPF) vs.
Purpose: To evaluate the value of a browser-based PI-RADS Score Calculator (PCalc) compared to MRI reporting using the official PI-RADS v2.1 document (PDoc) for non-specialized radiologists in terms of reporting efficiency, interrater agreement and diagnostic accuracy for detection of clinically significant prostate cancer (PCa).
Methods: Between 09/2013 and 04/2015, 100 patients (median age, 64.
