Journal ArticleDOI
Imaging of adrenal tumors using FDG PET: comparison of benign and malignant lesions.
Simone Maurea,Ciro Mainolfi,Lucio Bazzicalupo,Maria Rosaria Panico,Carmela Imparato,Bruno Alfano,Mario Ziviello,Marco Salvatore +7 more
TL;DR: PET imaging with FDG can metabolically characterize adrenal masses and reveal extraadrenal tumor sites in patients with malignant tumors, using a single imaging technique for accurate disease staging.
Journal Article
The Diagnostic Role of Radionuclide Imaging in Evaluation of Patients with Nonhypersecreting Adrenal Masses
TL;DR: In patients with nonhypersecreting adrenal masses, radionuclide adrenal imaging, using specific radiopharmaceuticals such as norcholesterol, MIBG, and FDG, may provide significant functional information for tissue characterization.
Journal Article
Enhanced Detection of Viable Myocardium by Technetium-99m-MIBI Imaging after Nitrate Administration in Chronic Coronary Artery Disease
Simone Maurea,Alberto Cuocolo,Andrea Soricelli,L Castelli,Antonio Nappi,Fiorenzo Squame,Massimo Imbriaco,Bruno Trimarco,Marco Salvatore +8 more
TL;DR: In patients with chronic ischemic LV dysfunction, nitrate administration improved the detection of severely hypoperfused but still viable myocardium on 99mTc-MIBI images.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of colo-rectal liver metastases: prospective comparison of contrast enhanced US, multidetector CT, PET/CT, and 1.5 Tesla MR with extracellular and reticulo-endothelial cell specific contrast agents
Pier Paolo Mainenti,Marcello Mancini,Ciro Mainolfi,Luigi Camera,Simone Maurea,Antonietta Manchia,Michela Tanga,Francesco Persico,Pietro Addeo,Dario D’Antonio,Antonio Speranza,Luigi Bucci,Giovanni Persico,Leonardo Pace,Marco Salvatore +14 more
TL;DR: Gd- and SPIO-enhanced MRI seem to be the most accurate modality in the identification of liver metastases from colo-rectal carcinoma, and PET/CT shows a trend to perform better than the other modalities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sonographic hepatic-renal ratio as indicator of hepatic steatosis: comparison with 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy
Marcello Mancini,Anna Prinster,Giovanni Annuzzi,Raffaele Liuzzi,Rosalba Giacco,Carmela Medagli,Matteo Cremone,Gennaro Clemente,Simone Maurea,Gabriele Riccardi,Angela A. Rivellese,Marco Salvatore +11 more
TL;DR: US H/R exhibits high sensitivity and specificity for detecting liver fatty changes and could therefore be a valuable analytic tool in clinical investigation, and indicates that quantitative evaluation of hepatic fat content can be performed using US H/r.
