Positron emission tomography imaging of lung cancer: An overview of alternative positron emission tomography tracers beyond F18 fluorodeoxyglucose

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
Lung cancer has been the leading cause of cancer-related mortality in China in recent decades. Positron emission tomography-computer tomography (PET/CT) has been established in the diagnosis of lung cancer. 18F-FDG is the most widely used PET tracer in foci diagnosis, tumor staging, treatment planning, and prognosis assessment by monitoring abnormally ...

Prostate cancer and sarcoma: Challenges of synchronous malignancies

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports, 2020
Synchronous primary malignancies are a rare finding which can be difficult to diagnose. We present the case of a 57-year-old patient with a high prostate specific antigen who was found to have prostate cancer on subsequent magnetic resonance imaging.
