Department of Nuclear Medicine, Inselspital, Bern University Hospital, University of Bern, Freiburgstrasse 20, 3010, Bern, Switzerland.

Introduction: Despite the potential of dosimetry in optimizing personalized radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT), its limited clinical implementation impedes the development of simplified protocols for routine adoption. However, simplifications may introduce errors in dosimetry, prompting questions about their impact on clinical practice.

Materials And Methods: In this retrospective study, we analyzed data from 21 patients diagnosed with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who underwent multiple cycles of Lu-PSMA-617 RPT treatment.

Application of modified Curie and SIOPEN skeleton scoring systems in F-AlF-NOTA-octreotide PET/CT for neuroblastoma.

Nuclear Medicine Department, Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University, 95 Yong'an Road, Xicheng District, Beijing, 100050, China.

Objective: The study aimed to explore the role of fluorine-18-aluminum fluoride-1,4,7-triazacyclononane-1,4,7-triacetic acid-octreotide (F-OC) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in neuroblastoma (NB) and compared it with Iodine-123 labeled metaiodobenzylguanidine (I-MIBG) scintigraphy with single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT), as well as to investigate the feasibility of the modified Curie scoring system and International Society of Pediatric Oncology Europe Neuroblastoma (SIOPEN) skeleton scoring system applied in F-OC PET/CT.

Methods: Patients with pathologically confirmed NB underwent I-MIBG scintigraphy with SPECT/CT and F-OC PET/CT according the standard imaging protocols. The interval between the two imaging techniques ranged from 0 to 22 days (median interval: 9 days).

Purpose To determine whether fluorine 18 (F) fluorothymidine (FLT) PET imaging alone or combined with Mount Sinai Acute GVHD International Consortium (MAGIC) biomarkers could help identify subclinical gastrointestinal graft versus host disease (GI-GVHD) by day 100 following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Materials and Methods F-FLT PET imaging was analyzed in a prospective pilot study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier no.

Article Synopsis
  • Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) is a rare inflammatory condition that includes symptoms like daily fevers, joint pain, skin rashes, and spleen enlargement, often requiring tests to rule out blood cancers.
  • A case study of a 38-year-old man revealed symptoms such as fatigue, high fever, night sweats, and skin rashes, leading to extensive testing, including CT and PET/CT scans that showed enlarged lymph nodes and high metabolic activity in his spleen and bone marrow.
  • Ultimately, biopsies of the lymph node and bone marrow showed signs of hyperreactivity but no cancer, confirming AOSD as a diagnosis of exclusion, particularly when high ferritin levels and systemic symptoms are present
