Bone is a frequent site of metastases and typically indicates a short-term prognosis in cancer
patients. Once cancer has spread to the bones it can rarely be cured, but often it can still be …

Bone is the most common site to which breast cancer metastasizes. Imaging—by skeletal
scintigraphy, plain radiography, computed tomography, or magnetic resonance imaging—is …

Background: Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is a rare but highly lethal form of thyroid
cancer. Since the guidelines for the management of ATC by the American Thyroid …

Background Correctly staging lung cancer is important because the treatment options and
prognosis differ significantly by stage. Several noninvasive imaging studies and invasive …

Background: Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is a rare but highly lethal form of thyroid
cancer. Rapid evaluation and establishment of treatment goals are imperative for optimum …

The aim of this study was to compare the detection of bone metastases by 99mTc-methylene
diphosphonate (99mTc-MDP) planar bone scintigraphy (BS), SPECT, 18F-Fluoride PET …

The oligometastatic state has been proposed as an intermediate stage of cancer spread
between localized disease and widespread metastases. With improvements in diagnostic …

Although 18F-labeled NaF was the first widely used agent for skeletal scintigraphy, it quickly
fell into disuse after the introduction of 99mTc-labeled bone-imaging agents. Recent …

Molecular imaging modalities provide a wealth of information that is highly complementary
and rarely redundant. To combine the advantages of molecular imaging techniques, 18F …

Objective To perform a meta-analysis to compare 18 FDG PET, CT, MRI and bone
scintigraphy (BS) for the diagnosis of bone metastases. Methods Databases including …
