Fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography in the evaluation of solitary pulmonary nodule: a scoping review [PDF]
Background: The role of fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18 F-FDG-PET/CT) in the surgical approach of solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN) is still debated, as the increased metabolic avidity of the lesion was ...

Comprehensive management of vulvovaginal cancers
Abstract Vulvar and vaginal cancers represent rare malignancies, with an incidence of 2.7 per 100,000 women for vulvar cancer, predominantly affecting women older than 60 years, although rising rates are observed in younger demographics. Approximately 90% of vulvar cancers are squamous cell carcinoma and frequently are associated with human ...
