Expert Perspective: Diagnosis and Treatment of Castleman Disease
Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.Castleman disease (CD) is a major diagnostic challenge for rheumatologists. Unicentric CD (UCD) involves one enlarged lymph node region, whereas multicentric CD (MCD) involves multiple enlarged lymph node regions. Both UCD and MCD may exhibit a wide range of symptoms that overlap with other immune‐mediated conditions.

18F-fluorodeoxyglucose PET/CT in cancer imaging [PDF]
Clinical Medicine, 2006 By far the most widely used and successful PET radiotracer is 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG). Most PET radiotracers, including FDG, require a cyclotron for generation. Other PET radiotracers have limited clinical usefulness as they have very short physical half lives (Table 1). Fluorine-18 has a physical half-life of 110 minutes, allowing distribution of
