Cytopathologic Features of Metastatic Malignant Mesothelioma With SMARCB1 (INI‐1) Deficient Diagnosed by Ultrasound‐Guided Fine‐Needle Aspiration: A Case Report

Diagnostic Cytopathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is a rare yet aggressive neoplasm that arises from mesothelial cells lining the thoracic and abdominal cavities, the pericardium, and the tunica testis. Characterized by rapid progression, high invasiveness, and a poor prognosis, MM poses significant clinical challenges. SMARCB1, also referred to as INI‐1, hSNF5, or

The Importance of Patient Positioning in Radiography When Utilising Automatic Exposure Control

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This study highlights the impact of inaccurate patient positioning on dose and image quality when utilising the automatic exposure control (AEC) for radiographic examinations. While the AEC serves to optimise radiation dose to patients, the results here demonstrate that poor positioning can lead to significant dose implications for patients.

Optimising hypoxia PET imaging and its applications in guiding targeted radiation therapy for non‐small cell lung cancer: a scoping review

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 106-118, March 2025.
This review article reports that quantification of hypoxic volumes using PET in the pre‐radiation therapy setting is of prognostic value and indicative of treatment response in non‐small cell lung cancer. Abstract Introduction Non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the leading cause of cancer‐related death. Definitive treatment includes chemotherapy and

Impact of Combined Additional Resections on the Surgical Outcomes of Robot‐Assisted Resection of Thymic Epithelial Tumors

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Robot‐assisted thoracoscopy (RATS) is rapidly emerging as the preferred approach for the resection of thymic epithelial tumors (TET). Current challenges include the role of RATS in locally advanced disease and combined additional resections.
