Department of Head and Neck Surgical Oncology, TMH, Tata Memorial Centre, Mumbai, India; Homi Bhabha National Institute, Mumbai, India.
Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the effectiveness of contralateral neck dissection (CND) in patients with recurrent oral cavity squamous cell cancers (OCSCC), revealing a lack of strong evidence for its routine use.
- Out of 78 patients with ipsilateral recurrence, the study found a 23.1% occurrence of contralateral nodal metastasis (CNM) with depth of invasion (DOI) being a significant predictor, particularly when DOI exceeds 10 mm.
- Imaging methods like PET-CECT showed a low positive predictive value (33%) but a high negative predictive value (88%), suggesting that CND may be warranted for tumors with greater DOI.

Objective: To describe a large series of patients, in which a novel founder mutation in the Roma population of southern Spain has been identified.
Methods: Patients diagnosed with centronuclear myopathy (CNM) at 5 major reference centers for neuromuscular disease in Spain (n = 53) were screened for mutations. Clinical, histologic, radiologic, and genetic features were analyzed.
(18)F FDG PET/CT versus CT/MR Imaging and the Prognostic Value of Contralateral Neck Metastases in Patients with Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

May 2016
From the Departments of Otolaryngology (J.T.P., J.L.R., S.H.C., S.Y.N., S.Y.K.), Nuclear Medicine (J.S.K.), Radiology (J.H.L.), and Pathology (K.J.C.), Asan Medical Center, University of Ulsan College of Medicine, 88 Olympic-ro 43-gil,Songpa-gu, Seoul 138-736, Republic of Korea.
Purpose: To evaluate whether contralateral neck metastasis (CNM) from previously untreated head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) can be accurately detected at combined computed tomography (CT)/magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and fluorine 18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/CT and assess the prognostic value of CNM.
Materials And Methods: This prospective study was approved by the institutional review board, and written informed consent was obtained from all enrolled patients. In total, 160 patients with HNSCC were preoperatively evaluated with FDG PET/CT and CT/MR imaging.
Background uptake of breast-specific gamma imaging: correlation with mammographic breast density and background enhancement of breast MRI.
Clin Imaging

Department of Nuclear Medicine, Konkuk University Medical Center, Konkuk University School of Medicine, Seoul, Republic of Korea.
Purpose: To investigate the relationship between background uptake of breast-specific gamma imaging (BSGI) mammographic breast density and background enhancement of breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Materials And Methods: The level and texture of background uptake of BSGI, mammographic breast density, and background enhancement of breast MRI are retrospectively reviewed in 104 patients.
Results: Heterogeneous and increased background uptake of BSGI was significantly correlated with high mammographic breast density (P=.
Ultrasound evaluation of traumatic patient in a tertiary level hospital.

Centre for Nuclear Medicine and Ultrasound (CNM&U), Mymensingh, Bangladesh.
This study was designed to assess the use of ultrasonography in evaluation of trauma patients to see any intraperitoneal collection, collection in pleural cavity, any vital organ injury or any localized collection in blunt trauma to abdomen. This cross sectional study was performed in patient having history of trauma who attended the Centre for Nuclear Medicine & Ultrasound (CNM&U), Mymensingh for ultrasonic evaluation. Ultrasonography scanning was done to see any intraperitoneal collection, pleural collection or vital organ injury.
