Comprehensive Non-invasive Versus Invasive Approach to Evaluate Cardiac Allograft Vasculopathy in Heart Transplantation: The CCTA-HTx Study.
Circ Cardiovasc Imaging
January 2025
Cardiovascular Center Aalst, Onze-Lieve-Vrouwziekenhuis (OLV) Clinic, Aalst, Belgium (M. Belmonte, P.P., M.M.V., M. Beles, H.O., R.S., G.E., M.S., R.D., W.H., J.V.K., J.B., M.V.).
Background: Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is emerging as a valuable tool for noninvasive surveillance of cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) in patients with heart transplant (HTx). We assessed the diagnostic performance of a comprehensive CCTA-based approach compared with the invasive reference, which includes invasive coronary angiography, intravascular ultrasound, and fractional flow reserve, for detecting CAV.
Methods: This was a multicenter prospective study including 37 patients with HTx who underwent CCTA, invasive coronary angiography, intravascular ultrasound, and fractional flow reserve.
Case report: Detecting giant cell arteritis in [Ga]Ga-DOTA-Siglec-9-PET/CT.

Department of Rheumatology and Clinical Immunology, Clinic of Internal Medicine III, University Hospital Bonn, Bonn, Germany.
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic utility of [Ga]Ga-DOTA-Siglec-9 positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) in assessing disease activity in a patient experiencing a relapse of giant cell arteritis (GCA).
Case Presentation: A 90-year-old male patient with GCA, diagnosed in 2018, was enrolled. Demographic data, disease history, and laboratory parameters, including soluble VAP-1 (sVAP-1) levels, were recorded.

Introduction: Precision medicine refers to managing brain tumors according to each patient's unique characteristics when it was realized that patients with the same type of tumor differ greatly in terms of survival, responsiveness to treatment, and toxicity of medication. Precision diagnostics can now be advanced through the establishment of imaging biomarkers, which necessitates quantitative image acquisition and processing. The VASARI (Visually AcceSAble Rembrandt Images) manual annotation methodology is an ideal and suitable way to determine the accurate association between genotype and imaging phenotype.

January 2025
Division of Cancer Surgery, Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.
Objective: To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the relationship between intraprostatic maximum standardised uptake value (SUV) of the dominant prostatic lesion as measured on preoperative prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) with radical prostatectomy International Society of Urological Pathology (ISUP) Grade Group, pathological tumour (pT) staging, and biochemical recurrence (BCR).
Methods: Prostate-specific membrane antigen PET may offer non-invasive assessment of histopathological and oncological outcomes before definitive treatment. SUV of the dominant lesion has been explored as a prognostic biomarker.

BACKGROUND Mondor's disease (MD), or sclerosing superficial thrombophlebitis of the veins of the anterior thoracic wall, is a rare condition of unknown cause that usually involves the superior epigastric vein, producing a visible and palpable Mondor cord. This report describes a 27-year-old Japanese woman presenting with left chest wall pain due to palpable and visible sclerosing superficial thrombophlebitis. CASE REPORT We present the case of a 27-year-old Japanese woman who presented with 8 days of left chest wall and upper abdominal pain.
