PET: other thoracic malignancies
The vast majority of esophageal cancers are fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) avid; the primary use for positron emission tomography (PET) in patients with esophageal cancer is in the detection of distant metastases, because known distant metastatic disease precludes surgical resection. High standardized uptake values (SUVs) may be predictive of poor prognosis. PET findings may be used to assess therapy...
متن کاملThoracic malignancies, cisplatin and renal function.
C isplatin (cis-dichlorodiammine-platinum II or CDDP) is the central drug used in the management of thoracic malignancies. The first trials were published in the 1970s [1], showing activity in lung cancer. Since then it has been shown to improve survival in advanced nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) [2] and survival and cure in combination with radiotherapy in locoregional NSCLC and prior to [3...
متن کاملCigarette smoking and colorectal cancer risk by molecularly defined subtypes.
BACKGROUND Cigarette smoking is an established risk factor for colorectal cancer. Because colorectal carcinogenesis is a heterogeneous process, we investigated whether cigarette smoking is differentially associated with molecularly defined subtypes of colorectal cancer. METHODS We evaluated associations between smoking and incident colorectal cancer, overall and by microsatellite instability ...
متن کاملDevelopment of Molecularly Targeted Therapies to Treat Pediatric Malignancies
Drugs and biologics developed to treat children with cancer have been historically developed in adults for adult indications. Although leading to many useful drugs and biologics to treat pediatric cancer, future development of molecularly targeted therapies (MTTs) should be directed toward pediatric tumors more specifically to maximize antitumor efficacy while minimizing acute morbidity and lon...
متن کاملDual-energy CT imaging of thoracic malignancies
Computed tomography (CT) plays a pivotal role in the detection, characterization, and staging of lung cancer and other thoracic malignancies. Since the introduction of clinically viable dual-energy CT techniques, substantial evidence has accumulated on the use of this modality for imaging chest malignancies. This article describes the principles of dual-energy CT along with suitable image acqui...
