Abstract We in this article have presented a review of the guideline recommendations on theranostic positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) imaging which will be helpful to assist practitioners providing appropriate patient care. Multiple guidelines by different societies and medical associations provide standards for diagnosis, imaging, treatment cancer patients. They generat...

Computed Tomography (CT) has been widely used in radiological imaging diagnosis, but it generates higher doses patients. The growing demand for tomography exams generated concern the scientific community increasing population dose by this technique.

Brain stroke discovery remains one of the foremost critical investigation zones in restorative imaging. A brain can be classified into two primary categories Ischemic and Haemorrhagic. Imaging technology detects strokes early. When it comes to imaging, American College Radiology persistently overhauls its rules for imaging pathways through ACR Fittingness Criteria. There are a few prevalent met...

The present article is aimed at describing the key findings of ovarian torsion at computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Two investigators have consensually selected and analyzed magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography images acquired in the period from January 2010 to December 2011 of patients with proven acute abdominal pain resulting from ovarian torsion, highlighting...

There are considerable rates of pediatrics trauma referring emergency department following a traumatic event. The worried parents are requesting for the most sensitive diagnostic test, so emergency physicians ask them to underwent brain computed tomography (CT) scan. Lower threshold of decision making regarding use of brain CT scan results in huge number of normal imaging. On the other hand, ra...

  We report an unusual case of a young male with cerebellar hemangioblastoma treated previously for medullary carcinoma of thyroid, whose PET/CT scans revealed a constellation of findings that suggested the rare Von Hippel Lindau syndrome. The diagnosis was clinched by confirming the findings on whole body contrast enhanced computed tomography (CECT) and contrast enha...

Abstract This chapter focuses on the role of imaging, in particular magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET), for evaluation patients with cervical cancer (CC) endometrial (EC).

Imaging a new mass lesion in a child requires careful consideration of a variety of issues. The age of the child is an important factor in determining the appropriate test to start with and the age also helps provide an appropriate differential diagnosis, which can then be used to guide further imaging. The long-term outcome for most children with cancer is very good, with over 70% achieving 5-...
