18F-FDG PET/CT is crucial for cancer diagnosis; however, respiratory motion often causes misregistration between PET and CT images. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of a custom-made respiratory ...
In the era of high-sensitivity troponin, minor elevations are often attributed to noncardiac etiologies. However, in patients who present with characteristic symptoms, any troponin elevation is ...
A 70-y-old woman was referred for a dual-isotope subtraction scintigraphy with 123I and 99mTc-sestamibi in combination with SPECT/CT and ultrasound for the localization of parathyroid adenoma. Aside ...
This study investigated the application of large language models (LLMs) with and without retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) in nuclear medicine, particularly their performance across various topics ...
The heart’s innervation relies on a delicate balance between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, each using distinct neurotransmitters to regulate heart rate, contractility, and ...
The Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI), founded in 1954 and headquartered in Reston, Va., is a nonprofit scientific and professional organization that promotes the science, ...
The annual incidence of cardiac sarcoidosis is low, but increased awareness of this inflammatory condition has led to earlier disease recognition. High mortality rates compel prompt diagnosis and ...
A disadvantage of 18F-NaF PET/CT compared with other types of bone scintigraphy is the additional radiation dose from the standard whole-body CT scan for lesion localization and characterization (L/C) ...
The Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) is an international scientific and professional organization founded in 1954 to promote the science, technology, and practical application ...
18F-FDG PET with CT is an important advanced imaging modality used to assess patients with suspected or known cardiac sarcoidosis (CS). 18F-FDG PET is indicated for CS work-up in patients with ...
