Can narrow-band imaging be used to determine the surgical margin of superficial hypopharyngeal cancer?
Narrow-band imaging (NBI) is a novel optical technique that uses narrow bandwidth filters in a video endoscope system to improve the diagnostic capability of endoscopes in characterizing tissues. It is well known that early identification of neoplasia in the gastrointestinal tract using this technique might make it possible to reduce the suffering of patients caused by loss of function or sever...
متن کاملMolecular imaging: what can be used today
Biochemical cellular targets and more general metabolic processes in cancer cells can be visualised. Extensive data are available on molecular imaging in preclinical models. However, innovative tracers move slowly to the clinic. This review provides information on the currently available methods of metabolic imaging, especially using PET in humans. The uptake mechanisms of tracer methods and a ...
متن کاملCan the IVIM model be used for renal perfusion imaging?
OBJECTIVE Renal perfusion imaging may provide information about the hemodynamic significance of a renal artery stenosis and could improve noninvasive characterization when combined with angiography. It was proposed previously that diffusion sequences could provide useful perfusion indices based on the intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) model. Owing to motion artifacts, diffusion imaging has be...
متن کاملNarrow band imaging for bladder cancer
Narrow band imaging (NBI) is a newly developed technology aiming to provide additional endoscopic information for patients with bladder cancer. This review focuses on the diagnostic accuracy and treatment outcome using NBI cystoscopy for the treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. Current results showed improved sensitivity of NBI cystoscopy compared to conventional white light cystosc...
متن کاملCan Prostate Specific Antigen Be Used as New Biomarker for Early Diagnosis of Breast Cancer?
Introduction: As a glycoprotein, Plasma Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) is mainly produced by prostate epithelial cells and is used as a major diagnostic tool for prostate cancer. A group of researchers relate the elevated number of estrogen receptors in breast cancer samples to the over-production of PSA in this type of cancer. Therefore, the present study aimed to determine the participants' ...
