Filter by:To prospectively evaluate the radiodrug biodistribution of a novel PET imaging agent [18F]F-PSMA-N5 in different organs of prostate cancer patients and its diagnostic efficacy in the diagnosis, recurrence and metastasis of prostate cancer, and to compare with [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11.
To prospectively evaluate the radiodrug biodistribution of a novel PET imaging agent [18F]F-PSMA-N5 in different organs of prostate cancer patients and its diagnostic efficacy in the diagnosis, recurrence and metastasis of prostate cancer, and to compare with [18F]F-PSMA-1007.
Background: PROMISE criteria have been defined for standardized reporting of Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) PET whole-body stage of prostate cancer. PSMA PET disease extent by PROMISE has been associated with oncologic outcome. Need: Improved prognostication across various stages of prostate cancer is needed for management guidance and study design. Aim: 1. To assess the prognostic value of PSMA PET 2. To compare the prognostic value of PSMA PET with clinical prognostic scores in patients with prostate cancer at various disease stages Inclusion: - Adult patients with - biopsy/histo proven prostate cancer who - underwent PSMA PET (any type) - for staging or re-staging at any stage and who - have at least 3-year overall survival follow-up data available will be included consecutively. Exclusion: - Patients with neuroendocrine prostate cancer - Patients with metastasized or disseminated malignancy other than prostate cancer
To prospectively evaluate the radiodrug biodistribution of a novel PET imaging agent [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-D5 in different organs of prostate cancer patients and its diagnostic efficacy in the diagnosis, recurrence and metastasis of prostate cancer, and to compare with [68Ga]Ga-PSMA-11.
Malignant tumors are a significant health threat with high incidence and mortality rates, and molecular imaging is crucial for early diagnosis, staging, prognosis evaluation, and therapeutic efficacy assessment. 18F-FDG PET imaging is widely used, but has limitations. Integrin αvβ6 is a promising target for tumor-targeted imaging, as it is only expressed in cancerous or reconstructed epithelial cells. A new PET probe, 68Ga-Trivehexin, targeting integrin αvβ6 has been developed with better affinity and selectivity than previous probes. Clinical data supports its safety and metabolic stability, and future research will explore its diagnostic and staging value in different types of tumors and compare it to 18F-FDG, providing a new and precise evaluation method for malignant tumors.
The participants were recruited from elderly subjects in the age range of 60-85 years and audiological assessments, cognitive function assessments, non-invasive brain imaging, behavioral assessments were collected from the normal control group, the elderly deaf non-hearing group and the elderly deaf hearing group according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The project aims to investigate the differences in auditory speech and cognitive function in age-related deafness at the behavioural level, and to investigate the central cortical metabolic mechanisms in age-related deafness at the brain imaging level.
PET/CT follow up for Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma The following is a presentation of a prospective protocol, named PET/CT follow up for Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (PET Follow), including patients who have completed radiotherapy treatment for squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC). The purpose of this study is to investigate the diagnostic performance of 18F-fluorodeoxy-D-glucose (FDG) Positron Emission Tomography/ Computed Tomography (PET/CT) in patients with HNSCC after curative intended treatment.
Latest generation extended axial field-of-view (FOV) PET/CT systems offer the potential for substantial reductions in applied radiopharmaceutical necessary for a clinical scan. However, such low-dose examination protocols have yet to be robustly tested or demonstrated to be non-inferior. Furthermore, extended FOV scanners offer the potential for CT-less attenuation correction of the PET emission data, making clinically acceptable ultra-low dose examination protocols with radiation exposures of < 1 millisievert possible for the first time. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the clinical acceptability of such low and ultra-low dose scanning protocols in a head-to-head prospective study against a full-dose scan using a regular FOV system
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is closely related to diabetes (DM). DM will aggravate the progression of AD, but the specific mechanism has not yet been clarified. Previous study found that a key pathological feature of the pancreas in patients with DM is islet amyloid polypeptide, and there is also islet amyloid polypeptide in the brain. Therefore, DM may cause cytotoxicity through the interaction between pancreatic amyloid and brain Aβ protein and further aggravate AD progress. In this study, starting with DM and AD pathological biomarkers, the amyloid PET target molecular probe 18F-AV45 will be used to monitor the dynamic changes of amyloid protein in the brain and pancreas during the development of AD. The completion of this study will provide a new view for understanding the mechanism of DM on AD cognitive dysfunction and effectively preventing and treating these two diseases.
The incidence and mortality of hematological malignancies remain high. Although 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging is the most common molecular imaging technique used in clinic, the non-specific uptake of 18F-FDG leads to the problems of false negative or positive in hematological malignancies, which makes it difficult to diagnose and evaluate the efficacy. CXCR4 (C-X-C Chemokine Receptor Type 4) is overexpressed in various hematological malignancies, and is associated with poor prognosis. CXCR4-targeted molecular imaging, such as 68Ga-pentixafor PET/CT imaging, has an important potential in hematological malignancies. Therefore, this study will evaluate the efficacy of CXCR4-targeted PET/CT imaging for diagnosis and staging of hematological malignancies, compared with 18F-FDG PET/CT imaging.
