A modified Delphi consensus statement on the role of biopsy in small renal masses
Abstract Objective To understand the variable utilisation of diagnostic biopsy for small renal masses (SRM) across the urology community, we worked with expert clinicians and patients to produce a consensus statement on the role of biopsy and to identify research gaps.

99mTc Labelling Strategies for the Development of Potential Nitroimidazolic Hypoxia Imaging Agents
Technetium-99m has a rich coordination chemistry that offers many possibilities in terms of oxidation states and donor atom sets. Modifications in the structure of the technetium complexes could be very useful for fine tuning the physicochemical and ...

Giant Adrenal Neuroblastoma in Adults: Surgical Management and Comprehensive Review
ABSTRACT Neuroblastoma (NB) is a rare solid tumor of the sympathetic nervous system, primarily occurring in children and rarely in adults. Its extracranial origin stems from the medullary region of the adrenal gland or sympathetic ganglia. We report an 18‐year‐old female who presented with a 6‐month history of abdominal swelling and tenderness. Imaging

The Environmental Impact of Medical Imaging Agents and the Roadmap to Sustainable Medical Imaging
Medical imaging agents are vital for diagnosis, but their harmful components pollute water and endanger health. This article examines their environmental impact, linking their chemistry to consequences. It proposes the 3Cs (control, change, combine) as guidelines for sustainable design, and highlights innovative, eco‐friendly imaging approaches ...

SUCCESSFUL DIAGNOSIS OF PULMONARY ALVEOLAR MICROLITHIASIS BY A NEW MODALITY
Pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis is a rare disease with an almost unheard of pathogenesis. With very few cases to document worldwide, predominantly being discovered in Turkey, Italy, and America, it has been nearly impossible to determine a concrete ...

Uptake Difference by Somatostatin Receptors in a Patient with Neuroendocrine Tumor: 99mTc-Octreotide Uptake in the Lung without Uptake in Liver Lesions [PDF]
The diagnostic value of somatostatin receptor scintigraphy (SRS) in detecting tumors has been assessed in a number of studies. We present a 30-year-old female with a history of eight months cough and left shoulder pain.
