Background: The hybrid imaging positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance (PET/MR) is an important tool in the management of pediatric oncology patients, particularly in malignant musculoskeletal pathologies, because it combines the functional and metabolic information of tumor provided by PET with the high soft-tissue contrast and the functional information offered by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Methods: We performed an observational retrospective study that included pediatric patients diagnosed with primary bone or soft-tissue sarcomas in the Pediatric Hematology and Oncology Unit at the HM Montepríncipe University Hospital, Boadilla del Monte, Madrid (Spain) who underwent whole-body F-fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) PET/MRI as a staging study and for follow-up evaluation for treatment response from September 2017 to January 2023. This study explores the protocols, the practical application of the PET/MRI technique and our clinical experience at our center in the diagnosis and follow-up of primary bone tumors and soft-tissue sarcomas in children.

Objective: Beta cell destruction in type 1 diabetes (T1D) results from the combined effect of inflammation and recurrent autoimmunity. In recent years, the role played by beta cells in the development of T1D has evolved from passive victims of the immune system to active contributors in their own destruction. We and others have demonstrated that perturbations in the islet microenvironment promote endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in beta cells, leading to enhanced immunogenicity.
