High-risk hematology patients have a considerable medical need for more sensitive and
specific imaging approaches for IFD. This need may be addressable, in part, by better …

Objective Imaging is important for the diagnosis and follow‐up of necrotizing external otitis
(NEO). The best imaging modality is controversy. To suggest 2‐deoxy‐2‐[fluorine‐18] fluoro …

Nuclear medicine techniques have been an integral part of infection and inflammation
imaging for decades. Conventional radionuclide imaging tests, such as bone scintigraphy …

Radiomics analysis quantifies the interpolation of multiple and invisible molecular features
present in diagnostic and therapeutic images. Implementation of 18-fluorine …

Background Positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) with 18 F-
fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) has emerged as a rapidly evolving diagnostic tool for infectious …

Purpose The noninvasive imaging of bacterial infections is critical in order to reduce
mortality and morbidity caused by these diseases. The recently reported 18 F-FDS (18 F-2 …

Radiopharmaceuticals labeled with short-lived positron-emitting or gamma-emitting isotopes
are injected into patients just prior to performing positron emission tomography (PET) or …

New platforms are enabling radiochemistry to be carried out in tiny, microliter-scale volumes,
and this capability has enormous benefits for the production of radiopharmaceuticals. These …

Purpose The aim of this retrospective study was to assess the value of 18 F-FDG PET/CT in
the initial evaluation and follow-up of patients with tuberculosis (TB). Patients and Methods …

Aim. Polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) is a disease presenting with pain and stiffness, mainly
in shoulders, hip joints and neck. Laboratory markers of inflammation may bolster diagnosis …
