Of 203 patients with transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder which had been cystectomized and examined by step-sectioning during the period between 1969 and 1986, 33 had coexistent papillary, papillonodular and/or nodular carcinomas in the bladder. Of them, 12 (36%) had a history of papillary carcinomas, 26 (79%) had multiple tumors and 22 (67%) had a concomitant carcinoma in situ, and/or mucosal dysplasia. Moreover, microscopic papillary structures were identified in 32 out of the 33 (97%) cases with papillonodular and/or nodular carcinomas, indicating some of the nodular invasive carcinomas in the bladder to have developed from papillary carcinomas.

The EASL diagnostic algorithm for hepatocellular carcinoma, currently in use, dates back to 2018. While awaiting its update, numerous advancements have emerged in the field of hepatocellular carcinoma imaging. These innovations impact every step of the diagnostic algorithm, from surveillance protocols to diagnostic processes, encompassing aspects preceding a patient's inclusion in surveillance programs as well as the potential applications of imaging after the hepatocellular carcinoma diagnosis.

Background: The differential diagnosis between benign and malignant thyroid nodules continues to be a major challenge in clinical practice. The rising incidence of thyroid neoplasm and the low incidence of aggressive thyroid carcinoma, urges the exploration of strategies to improve the diagnostic accuracy in a pre-surgical phase, particularly for indeterminate nodules, and to prevent unnecessary surgeries. Only in 2022, the 5th WHO Classification of Endocrine and Neuroendocrine Tumors, and in 2023, the 3rd Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology and the European Thyroid Association included biomarkers in their guidelines.

Background: Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD), also known as sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy, is a rare non-malignant disorder characterized by excessive proliferation of histiocytes, the cause of which remains unknown. Although the lymph nodes are the most commonly affected site, some patients may present with extranodal involvement, particularly in the skin, nasal cavity, eyes, and bones. In this report, we aim to present a unique case of RDD with pleural involvement in a 61-year-old patient.

Purpose: To investigate the efficacy of [Ga]Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT for assessing viable tumours (VTs) after local regional treatment (LRT) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. The related imaging features of HCC after LRT are preliminarily discussed.
Methods: A cohort of 37 LRT patients with HCC (encompassing 51 lesions) was retrospectively included from a prospective parent study (ChiCTR2000039099), and sequential PET/CT using [F]FDG and [Ga]Ga-FAPI-04 was performed.
