node staging is essential for both prognosis (of early-stage disease) and treatment (for …

Involvement of the cervical lymph nodes is the most important prognostic factor for patients
with oral/oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), and the decision whether to …

Purpose The accurate harvesting of a sentinel node in breast cancer includes a sequence of
procedures with components from different medical specialities, including nuclear medicine …

Objective: The aim was to compare the (sentinel) lymph node detection rate of indocyanine
green (ICG)-fluorescent imaging versus standard-of-care 99m Tc-nanocoilloid for sentinel …

The purpose of this study was to develop multimodality SPECT/MRI contrast agents for
sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping in vivo. Methods: Nanoparticles with a solid iron oxide …

The accurate diagnosis of a sentinel node in melanoma includes a sequence of procedures
from different medical specialities (nuclear medicine, surgery, oncology, and pathology). The …

Aim To evaluate whether contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS)-guided core biopsy of the
sentinel lymph node (SLN) could identify metastatic nodes preoperatively and reduce the …

Abstract Supermagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles (SPIONs) are nanoparticles that have an
iron oxide core and a functionalized shell. SPIONs have recently raised much interest in the …

Current methods for intra-surgical guidance to localize metastases at cancer surgery are
based on radioactive tracers that cause logistical challenges. We propose the use of a novel …

Abstract Background Although Indocyanine green (ICG) is used to find sentinel nodes (SN)
in patients with breast cancer (BC), its role in clinical practice is still debated, and needs a …
