Abstract: To compare the visual and semiquantitative analysis of carbon-11-methionine (11C-MET) PET/computed tomography (CT) images in patients with primary brain tumors and suspected recurrence, persistence, or necrotic post-therapeutic changes. A total of 41 consecutive 11C-MET-PET/CT scans… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/cas.15001
Abstract: We conducted a prospective multicenter trial to compare the usefulness of 11C‐methionine (MET) and 18F‐fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) for identifying tumor recurrence. Patients with clinically suspected tumor recurrence after radiotherapy underwent both 11C‐MET… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/nu15010188
Abstract: Introduction: Tertiary hyperparathyroidism (tHP) may develop in patients treated with hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis. Parathyroidectomy may result in a significant reduction in the severity of symptoms. For the effective surgical treatment of hyperparathyroidism, proper localization… read more here.
