Five cycles chemotherapy palliative radiotherapy have been delivered mean follow up 1 year .Chestabdominal-pelvic CT scan MRI bone are necessarily assess clinical staging.

Background: Gastric cancer is an important health problem across the world. Chemotherapy in combination with local treatment is standard treatment for locally advanced gastroesophageal cancers. The purpose of this investigation was evaluation of response and tolerability to neoadjuvant EOX regimen in locoregionally advanced gastric cancer. Materials and Methods: patients with locoregionally adv...

PURPOSE (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography ((18)F-FDG PET/CT) scans are frequently performed for the screening or staging of malignant tumors. This study aimed to assess the usefulness of (18)F-FDG PET/CT in detection of gastric cancer recurrence after curative gastrectomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighty nine patients who had undergone curative gastrectomy...

A 65-year old patient is presented with an ultrasound showing multiple cysts in liver and both kidneys. Computed tomography scan (CT-scan) showed a cyst in the right liver lobe with a largest diameter of 12 cm, suspicious for cystadenocarcinoma. Further staging showed no extrahepatic metastasis. Considering possible malignancy, aspiration of the cyst was not an option because of the risk for en...

OBJECTIVE A recent revision of the FIGO staging system does not recommend the mandatory use of cystoscopy and sigmoidoscopy. The objective of this study was to assess the clinical utility of CT or MRI scans for ruling out bladder or rectal invasion and determine the indication for endoscopy in patients with cervical cancer. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 769 patients with cervical cancer...

STUDY OBJECTIVES This retrospective study of patients who were referred for surgical resection of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) assessed the accuracy and cost-effectiveness of positron emission tomography (PET) with radiolabeled [18F]-2-fluoro-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) in staging mediastinal lymph nodes (MLNs). DESIGN From January 2001 to September 2002, 90 patients with suspected or proven ...

Lung cancer without distant metastasis often requires an invasive surgical procedure to document inoperability. In order to determine how often puncture biopsy was a valid substitute for a surgical procedure, we investigated the performance of endoscopic staging by means of transcarinal needle aspiration biopsy during rigid bronchoscopy. Eighty lung cancer patients with subcarinal lymph nodes v...

objective(s): in clinical practice, approximately 10-25% of post-surgical differentiated thyroid carcinoma (dtc) patients with high serum thyroglobulin (tg) and negative 131i whole-body scan (wbs) have poor prognosis due to recurrent or metastatic lesions after radioactive iodine treatment. the purpose of this study was to evaluate the value of 18f-fdg pet/ct scan in dtc patients with high seru...

background: today the use of laparoscopy before laparotomy is an effective method for decision-making in patients with gastric adenocarcinoma. the reliance on ct scans for decision-making purposes is not only unhelpful, yet also misleading . nonetheless, indications for laparoscopy and its application are changing daily. the low quality of diagnostic tools and epidemiological situation in our c...

We describe the case of a 9-day-old female referred for a left posterior mediastinal mass, which we diagnosed as a thoracic neuroblastoma (TNBL) by biopsy. We present this case report to illustrate the classic radiographic, CT, MRI, and nuclear-medicine features of the disease. We believe it is an informative teaching resource for trainees and radiologists. TNBL is a solid childhood tumor of ne...
