Head-to-head comparison of FNA cytology vs. calcitonin measurement in FNA washout fluids (FNA-CT) to diagnose medullary thyroid carcinoma : A systematic review and meta-analysis

Purpose: The sensitivity of cytology after fine needle aspiration (FNA-cytology) in detecting medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) is low. To overcome this problem, measuring calcitonin (CT) in washout fluid of FNA (FNA-CT) has been largely diffused and showed good performance. However, no evidence-based study exists comparing systematically the sensitivity of FNA-cytology and FNA-CT. This study...

Prevalence of physiological uptake in the pancreas on somatostatin receptor-based PET/CT : a systematic review and a meta-analysis

Boughdad, Sarah ; Meyer, Marie ; Prior, John O. ; Fernandes, Victor ; Allenbach, Gilles ; Kamani, Christel ; Jreige, Mario ; Albano, Domenico ; Bertagna, Francesco ; Nicod-Lalonde, Marie ; Schaefer, Niklaus ; Treglia, Giorgio

In: Clinical and Translational Imaging, 2021, vol. 9, no. 4, p. 353–360

Background: Physiological focal radiopharmaceutical uptake in the head and uncinate process of the pancreas may be seen on somatostatin receptor-based PET/CT and might lead to false-positive results for neuroendocrine tumours (NETs). We aimed to perform a systematic review and a meta-analysis about the prevalence of this finding. Methods: We performed a comprehensive computer literature search...

Comparaison de relevés d'électrophysiologie et d'imagerie cardiaque PET-CT (FDG ET AMMONIA) : travail de Bachelor

Abdirahman, Zeinab ; Anderson, Kevin ; Cruz, Yamila Belén ; Schmid, Jérôme (Dir.)

Mémoire de bachelor : Haute école de santé Genève, 2021.

L'objectif de ce travail est de comparer des relevés d'électrophysiologie et d'imagerie cardiaque PET-CT au FDG et à l'AMMONIA afin de démontrer une possible corrélation entre ces deux modalités. Notre hypothèse est que la PET-CT peut apporter des informations complémentaires à l'intervention d'électrophysiologie dans la localisation des zones à traiter.
