Predictive factors for the outcomes of initial I-131 low-dose ablation therapy to Japanese patients with differentiated thyroid cancer
To identify prognostic factors associated with a low-iodine diet (LID) and the amount of remnant thyroid tissue in Japanese patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) who received initial I-131 remnant ...

Open AccessDiagnostic performance of 18F-FDG PET/CT and whole-body diffusion-weighted imaging with background body suppression (DWIBS) in detection of lymph node and bone metastases from pediatric neuroblastoma
Recent many studies have shown that whole body “diffusion-weighted imaging with background body signal suppression” (DWIBS) seems a beneficial tool having higher tumor detection sensitivity without ionizing ra...

Correlation between FDG-PET/CT findings and solid type non-small cell cancer prognostic factors: are there differences between adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma?
The maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) of FDG-PET/CT is commonly used as an indicator to evaluate the invasiveness and prognosis of non-small-cell lung cancers (NSCLC). We investigated the correlation ...

Open AccessPrediction of pathologic prognostic factors in patients with lung adenocarcinomas: comparison of thin-section computed tomography and positron emission tomography/computed tomography
The ratio of the maximum diameter of consolidation to the maximum tumor diameter (C/T ratio) on thin-section computed tomography (TSCT) and the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) on 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucos...

FDG-PET performed concurrently with initial I-131 ablation for differentiated thyroid cancer
Differentiated thyroid cancers (DTCs) are commonly treated by total thyroidectomy followed by I-131 radioiodine ablation to eradicate any residual thyroid tissue and to detect any metastatic lesions on post-tr...

Comparisons of I-123 diagnostic and I-131 post-treatment scans for detecting residual thyroid tissue and metastases of differentiated thyroid cancer
We assessed the performance of 37 MBq I-123 as a diagnostic imaging agent in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer using comparisons with their corresponding high-dose post-treatment I-131 scans.
