Importance: The D842V platelet-derived growth factor receptor α (PDGFRA) mutation identifies a molecular subgroup of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), primarily resistant to standard tyrosine kinase inhibitors and with an overall more indolent behavior. Although functional imaging with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose-labeled positron emission tomography ([18F]FDG-PET) plays a proven role in GISTs, especially in early assessment of tumor response, less is known about [18F]FDG uptake according to the GIST molecular subtypes.
Objective: To evaluate the degree of [18F]FDG uptake in PDGFRA-mutant GISTs and better define the role of functional imaging in this rare and peculiar subset of GISTs.

Purpose: Actinium-225 labeled prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) targeted radionuclide therapy has emerged as a potential treatment option in the management of men with metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). This study investigated molecular imaging-derived parameters and compared imaging response of lesions categorized by tumor site.
Methods: Men with mCRPC treated with [225Ac]Ac-J591 from 2017 to 2022 at our center on two prospective trials (NCT03276572 and NCT04506567) with pre- and post-treatment [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11 Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging studies available were included.

Background: This study seeks to close this divide by assessing the occurrence of Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) in the brain tissues of pet birds displaying neurological symptoms, utilizing Nested Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and Loop-mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP) methods. Furthermore, it aims to evaluate and contrast the sensitivity and specificity of different diagnostic procedures.

A 64-year-old man with newly diagnosed prostate cancer underwent 18F-Piflufolastat PET/CT. Radiotracer avidity localized to the primary prostate malignancy and to a left rib (SUVmax, 9.0).

Mandarin orange peel (MOP) is recognized for its traditional medicinal properties due to its high flavonoid content. This study aimed to analyze MOP harvested in Japan for specific bioactive compounds and to explore its health applications in dogs, including effects on gut microbiota and cognitive symptoms. Flavonoid content (particularly hesperidin and nobiletin) of MOP was measured.
