Background/objectives: Accurate diagnosis is essential to avoid unnecessary procedures for thyroid incidentalomas (TIs). Advances in radiomics and machine learning applied to medical imaging offer promise for assessing thyroid nodules. This study utilized radiomics analysis on F-18 FDG PET/CT to improve preoperative differential diagnosis of TIs.

: The role of molecular imaging in urothelial cancer is less defined than other cancers, and its utility remains controversial due to limitations such as high urinary tracer excretion, complicating primary tumour assessment in the bladder and upper urinary tract. This review explores the current landscape of PET imaging in the clinical management of urothelial cancer, with a special emphasis on potential future advancements including emerging novel non-F FDG PET agents, PET radiopharmaceuticals, and PET-MRI applications. : We conducted a comprehensive literature search in the PubMed database, using keywords such as "PET", "PET-CT", "PET-MRI", "FDG PET", "Urothelial Cancer", and "Theranostics".

Introduction: Aorto-bronchial or aorto-pulmonary fistulas (ABPF) are a rare but life-threatening complication following thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). This narrative review aims to provide an overview of the current trends and available evidence on ABPF following TEVAR, evaluating risk factors, diagnostic approaches, and possible preventive and therapeutic strategies.
Methods: Relevant publications on post-TEVAR ABPF were selected through a literature search on PubMed.
Objective: To investigate the prognostic value of baseline European Association of Nuclear Medicine Research Ltd. (EARL) standardized [F]fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography ([F]FDG PET-CT) quantitative values for survival and to evaluate cutoff values identified in other studies.
Materials And Methods: Pediatric and adolescent patients with high-grade osteosarcoma were included.
