Journal ArticleDOI

The impact of 18 FDG-PET on target and critical organs in CT-based treatment planning of patients with poorly defined non-small-cell lung carcinoma: a prospective study☆

TL;DR: The coregistration of planning CT and FDG-PET images made significant alterations to patient management and to the target volume (PTV) of non-small-cell lung carcinoma, particularly for three-dimensional conformal techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI

Observer variation in contouring gross tumor volume in patients with poorly defined non-small-cell lung tumors on CT: the impact of 18FDG-hybrid PET fusion.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors quantify interobserver variation in gross tumor volume (GTV) localization using CT images for patients with non-small-cell lung carcinoma and poorly defined tumors on CT and to determine whether variability would be reduced if coregistered 2-[18 F]fluoro-2-deoxy-dglucose (FDG)-hybrid positron emission tomography (PET) with CT images were used.
Journal ArticleDOI

Beyond the hippocampus MRI volumetry confirms widespread limbic atrophy in AD

TL;DR: These results verify that system-wide limbic degeneration occurs in patients with AD, and atrophy in selected limbic structures was used to distinguish patients withAD from normal elderly individuals with over 90% accuracy in this select clinical sample.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterisation of mammographic parenchymal pattern by fractal dimension.

TL;DR: The method developed may prove to be useful in establishing an index of risk for breast cancer and, ultimately, in determining intervals between examinations for individuals in a mammographic screening programme.
Journal ArticleDOI

Basal forebrain degeneration precedes and predicts the cortical spread of Alzheimer's pathology.

Taylor W. Schmitz, +311 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that basal forebrain pathology precedes and predicts both entorhinal pathology and memory impairment, challenging the widely held belief that AD has a cortical origin.
