This study investigated the prognostic value of metabolic parameters determined by 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in patients with stage III gastric cancer. Patients with pre-operative PET/CT and confirmed stage III after curative surgical resection were retrospectively enrolled. Parameters evaluated from pre-operative PET/CTwere maximum s...

The purpose of our study was to evaluate the association between metabolic parameters on FDG PET/CT and axillary lymph node metastasis (ALNM) in patients with invasive breast cancer.From January 2012 to December 2012, we analyzed 173 patients with invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) who underwent both initial breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomogra...

Tumor oxygenation is known to be an important predictive/prognostic marker in a variety of tumors, including cervix, head/neck, sarcoma, non-small cell of the lung, and breast. Tumor oxygenation is influenced by many interactions, including oxygen delivery (angiogenesis, permeability, and HgB) and consumption (metabolic and growth rates). This study randomized 30 nonanemic, female Fischer 344 r...

objective(s):sea cucumber is one of the classes of echinoderms, which is considered as a health marine product and possess various biological characteristics with therapeutic application. the present investigation attempted to evaluate the potential of anti-cancer persian gulf sea cucumber species holothuria arenicola (h. arenicola) aqueous extract on mice colon carcinoma cells in vitro and in ...

This study investigated the relationship between epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) mutations in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and quantitative FDG-PET/CT parameters including tumor heterogeneity. 131 patients with NSCLC underwent staging FDG-PET/CT followed by tumor resection and histopathological analysis that included testing fo...

Introduction.
