Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to compare two imaging techniques, whole-body diffusion-weighted MRI (WB-DWI-MRI) and FDG-PET/CT, in evaluating and monitoring treatment in children with Hodgkin lymphoma.
- - Eleven pediatric patients were analyzed using both imaging methods before and after two chemotherapy cycles, with focus on measuring tumor involvement and treatment responses through various metrics.
- - Results indicated that while WB-DWI-MRI showed some agreement in measurements, it was less effective than FDG-PET/CT for accurate staging and assessing treatment responses in these patients.
Radium Ra dichloride (RaCl) is an effective therapeutic radiopharmaceutical presently approved for the treatment of prostate cancer metastatic to bone. It is unique by virtue of being the first alpha-emitting radiopharmaceutical to achieve approval for use in the clinic, reaching this status both in the United States and Europe in 2013. In over ten years of research and approved clinical usage, the authors have encountered very few radiation-safety incidents of concern with RaCl; in this review, they relate their first-hand experience with this radiopharmaceutical and share some lessons learned, including situations of bleeding, surgery and patient demise.
