Purpose: Radionuclide-labeled fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) is an emerging tumor tracer. We sought to assess the uptake and diagnostic performance of F-FAPI-42 PET/CT compared with simultaneous 2-deoxy-2[F]fluoro-D-glucose (F-FDG) PET/CT in primary and metastatic lesions in patients with malignant digestive system neoplasms and to determine the potential clinical benefit.

Procedures: Forty-two patients (men = 30, women = 12, mean age = 56.

Peritoneopericardial leakage is a rare but important complication of peritoneal dialysis. Peritoneal scintigraphy is reported to be effective in diagnosing the peritoneopericardial communication. Although switching to hemodialysis is commonly recommended, reducing exchange volumes and performing peritoneal dialysis in an upright sitting position may also be considered particularly in pediatric patients.

We report an interesting case of a 64-year-old man with a history of radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer. The patient presented with steady increasing prostate-specific antigen levels, but with negative findings on previous multiple conventional prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT (with [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11) and [18F]FDG PET/CT. A recently introduced PSMA tracer using long-lived 89Zr (half-life 3.

: This study aimed to assess the diagnostic accuracy and prognostic significance of staging laparoscopy (SL) compared to computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) in gastric cancer staging. We evaluated the ability of SL to detect occult peritoneal metastases and influence of SL on survival outcomes across cancer stages and treatment approaches. : In this retrospective cohort study, 95 patients with gastric cancer underwent preoperative assessment using CT, PET-CT, and SL between 2018 and 2024.

Purpose: To evaluate organ-specific response to [Lu]DOTATATE Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT) in patients with small intestine neuroendocrine tumor (SiNET) through [Ga]DOTATOC PET/CT, and to analyze tumor uptake and functional volume variations at different metastatic sites in relation to disease progression during clinical follow-up after treatment.

Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 33 metastatic patients. PET/CT were performed pre-treatment (PET0), mid-treatment after two PRRT cycles (PET2), and post-treatment (PET4).
