DOI: 10.1002/cam4.3867
Abstract: The application of positron emission tomography (PET)‐computed tomography (CT) in treatment response evaluation has increased in diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (DLBCL), although its predictive value is controversial. We retrospectively analyzed the rate of false‐positive PET‐CTs… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/cam4.6106
Abstract: BACKGROUND The ability of lung cancer screening to manage pulmonary nodules was limited because of the high false-positive rate in the current mainstream screening method, low-dose computed tomography (LDCT). We aimed to reduce overdiagnosis in… read more here.
