Associations Between Atrial Cardiopathy and Cerebral Amyloid: The ARIC‐PET Study

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a risk factor for cognitive decline, possibly from silent brain infarction. Left atrial changes in structure or function (atrial cardiopathy) can lead to AF but may impact cognition independently.

PET-CT scan-based maximum standardized uptake value as a prognostic predictor in oropharynx squamous cell cancer

open access: yesCancer Treatment and Research Communications, 2021
Introduction: Positron emission tomography with 2-deoxy-2-[fluorine-18]fluoro-D-glucose integrated with computed tomography (18F-FDG PET-CT) is clinically useful and extensively used in initial staging and follow-up of patients with head and neck ...

Variations of training load, monotony, and strain and dose-response relationships with maximal aerobic speed, maximal oxygen uptake, and isokinetic strength in professional soccer players [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
This study aimed to identify variations in weekly training load, training monotony, and training strain across a 10-week period (during both, pre- and in-season phases); and to analyze the dose-response relationships between training markers and maximal ...

Can positron emission tomography/computed tomography be predictive of diagnostic success in endobronchial biopsies performed through a fiber-optic bronchoscopy in lung cancer?

open access: yesAnnals of Thoracic Medicine, 2018
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of homogeneous/heterogeneous (necrotic) involvement and maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) value of the lesion on positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) of ...

Impact of the Definition of Peak Standardized Uptake Value on Quantification of Treatment Response [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Nuclear Medicine, 2012
PET-based treatment response assessment typically measures the change in maximum standardized uptake value (SUV(max)), which is adversely affected by noise. Peak SUV (SUV(peak)) has been recommended as a more robust alternative, but its associated region of interest (ROI(peak)) is not uniquely defined.

Deep segmentation networks predict survival of non-small cell lung cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) represents approximately 80-85% of lung cancer diagnoses and is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Recent studies indicate that image-based radiomics features from positron emission tomography-computed
