Objective: To investigate differences in arterial involvement patterns on F-FDG PET-CT between predominant cranial and isolated extracranial phenotypes of giant cell arteritis (GCA).
Methods: A retrospective review of F-FDG PET-CT findings was conducted on 140 patients with confirmed GCA. The patients were divided into two groups: the cranial group, which presented craniofacial ischemic symptoms either at diagnosis or during follow-up, and the isolated extracranial group which never exhibited such manifestations.

Background: This study aimed to identify the prognostic value of interim F-FDG PET/CT (I-PET) for germinal center B-cell-like (GCB) and non-GCB diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), respectively.
Methods: Baseline F-FDG PET/CT (B-PET) and I-PET scans were performed in 112 patients with DLBCL. The prognostic value of I-PET using the Deauville five-point scale (D-5PS) criteria or percentage decrease in SUVmax (∆SUVmax) for GCB and non-GCB DLBCL were evaluated.
Epilepsia

Department of Neurosurgery, Nagoya University School of Medicine, Nagoya, Japan.
Objective: At our institute, most pediatric patients undergo epilepsy surgery following a thorough presurgical evaluation without intracranial electroencephalography (EEG). We conducted an initial validation of our noninvasive presurgical strategy by assessing the seizure and developmental outcomes of 135 children.
Methods: All 135 pediatric patients were <15 years old, had undergone curative surgery, and were followed for at least 2 years postoperatively.

Prostate cancer (PCa) outcomes vary significantly across risk groups. In early-stage localized PCa, the functional outcomes following radical prostatectomy (RP) can be severe, prompting increased interest in focal therapy, particularly High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU). This study is to summarize the current clinical trials of HIFU on PCa.

Our aim was to evaluate the possible long-term cerebral deposition of amyloid-β in patients with PD treated with subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) and its possible influence on axial and cognitive variables. Consecutive PD patients treated with bilateral STN-DBS with a long-term follow-up were included. The amyloid-β deposition was evaluated postoperatively through an 18F-flutemetamol positron emission tomography (PET) study.
