TL;DR: FDG-PET/CT was more sensitive than conventional imaging in the diagnosis of both primary pancreatic adenocarcinoma and associated distant metastases and was recommended in the evaluation of diagnostically challenging cases, especially in patients with biliary strictures without evidence of malignancy in conventional imaging.

TL;DR: The results of the present study confirm the clinical value of imaging techniques and prognostic scores and confirm that appendectomy remains the most effective treatment of acute appendicitis.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is suggested that the composite measurement of BF and metabolism in pancreatic cancer could serve as a novel tool in the planning of treatments targeting vasculature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fluorine -18 -L-dihydroxyphenylalanine (18F -DOPA) positron emission tomography as a tool to localize an insulinoma or β-cell hyperplasia in adult patients

TL;DR: Preoperative 18F-DOPA imaging seems to be a method of choice for the detection of beta-cell hyperplasia in adults when other diagnostic work-up is negative, and should be considered in patients with confirmed hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemias when other tests are negative.
