Prevalence and malignancy risk of focal colorectal incidental uptake detected by 18F-FDG-PET or PET/CT: a meta-analysis
BACKGROUND The aim of the study was to meta-analyze published data about prevalence and malignancy risk of focal colorectal incidentalomas (FCIs) detected by Fluorine-18-Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography or positron emission tomography/computed tomography ((18)F-FDG-PET or PET/CT). METHODS A comprehensive computer literature search of studies published through July 31(st) 2012 r...
متن کاملThyroid incidentalomas on 18FDG-PET/CT: a metabolico-pathological correlation
BACKGROUND Thyroid incidentaloma is defined as an unsuspected thyroid lesion found on imaging study or while performing a surgery non-related to the thyroid gland. Most recent scientific literature tends to demonstrate a detection rate of 0.1-4.3% for incidental findings of thyroid focal uptake identified by 18F-fluorodeoxyglugose Positron Emission Tomography with computed tomography (18FDG-PET...
متن کاملIncidence and Significance of Incidental Focal Thyroid Uptake on (18)F-FDG PET Study in a Large Patient Cohort: Retrospective Single-Centre Experience in the United Kingdom.
OBJECTIVE To assess the prevalence and pathological nature of incidental focal thyroid uptake on (18)F-FDG (2-[(18)F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose) PET (positron emission tomography) and examine the role of the maximum standardised uptake value (SUVmax) to differentiate benign from malignant thyroid pathology. MATERIAL AND METHODS (18)F-FDG PET reports were retrospectively reviewed. Incidental fo...
متن کاملIncidental thyroid uptake during 99mTc-methylene diphosphonate bone scintigraphy in oncologic patients
Introduction: Extraosseous accumulation of 99mTc – methylene diphosphonate (MDP) may be due to neoplastic, dystrophic, hormonal, inflammatory, ischemic, traumatic or excretory disorders. 99mTc-MDP incidental thyroid uptake is not frequent and is possibly caused by the presence of dystrophic or metastatic calcification, biopsy procedure and presence of beni...
متن کاملFocal Thyroid Uptake during 18F-Choline PET/CT: A Case Report
Here we report the case of a 60-year-old patient previously affected by prostate cancer treated with prostatectomy. After surgery, the patient was scheduled for routine follow up examinations including biochemical and imaging evaluations. PSA testing evidenced a light, continuous increase in the course of the last four sampling. This finding calls for a biochemical recurrence. Thus the patient ...
