The tumoral uptake of 2-[ 18 F]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose ( 18 FdGlc) is based upon enhanced
glycolysis. Positron-emission tomography (PET) using 18 FdGlc provides the physiological …

Wire‐guided localization is the most commonly used technique for intraoperative localization
of non‐palpable breast cancer. Radioactive seed localization (RSL) is becoming more …

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Body composition measurement is a valuable tool for assessing
nutritional status and physical fitness in a variety of clinical settings. Although bioimpedance …

Objectives : The aim of this study was to perform a head-to-head comparison between multi-slice
computed tomography (MSCT) and myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) in patients with …

BACKGROUND Second primary tumors are a leading cause of death among patients with
head and neck cancer; therefore, early detection of these tumors is necessary. In the current …

Aims At present, 20–30% of patients do not respond to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT).
