RESUMO

NETs lesions can be difficult to characterize with conventional anatomic imaging (CT and MRI). Functional imaging techniques, and especially PET imaging, are very useful for detecting small neuroendocrine tumors that would not be seen with other techniques. The role of nuclear medicine in the localization, staging, restaging, treatment and monitoring of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) has become progressively more relevant due to: the availability of tracers on new targets, tracers for positron emission tomography (PET); the development of cyclotrons and generators that allow this availability; as well as to hybrid systems (SPECT/CT, PET/CT and PET/MRI) that, by joining the functional and anatomical image, improve the quality of the images. Teragnosis, a new emerging therapy, in NET used receptor-mediated or nonreceptor- mediated mechanism to facilitate penetration and high-affinity binding between the radiopharmaceutical and the tumor cell. Teragnosis offers the possibility of personalized targeted radionuclide therapy.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT: Dual-phase amyloid PET is considered a useful protocol to study patients with cognitive impairment. Early-phase 18F-florbetaben PET/CT has been proposed as a surrogate of 18F-FDG PET/CT providing information related to regional brain perfusion. We report the case of a 61-year-old woman referred to the cognitive impairment unit for study, preliminary diagnosed as probable Alzheimer disease. The dual-phase 18F-florbetaben PET/CT was shown as the main finding, no uptake in the left anterior thalamus. Memory and language symptoms have been described as primary clinical features of anterior thalamic infarctions that could be confused with the main manifestations of Alzheimer disease.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Regadenoson, an A2A adenosine receptor pharmacologic stress agent for radionuclide myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI), is administered as a single, fixed dose. We studied the side effect profile of regadenoson combined with two types of low-level exercise, according to body mass index (BMI). METHODS: Three hundred and fifty-six patients (46.1% men, mean age 67.7±10.7 years, range 31-90 years) underwent regadenoson stress testing combined with low-level exercise. Subjects were classified according to BMI as normal, overweight, or obese, and the type of low-level exercise performed as walking on the treadmill (TE group, n=190) or forcefully swinging legs while sitting (SS group, n=166). Patients' demographics, medical history, clinical symptoms during stress, changes in ECG, oxygen saturation (SatO2), systolic blood pressure (SBP), and heart rate (HR) were evaluated. RESULTS: Groups were comparable (p=ns) with regard to cardiovascular risks factors. The incidence of side effects was similar across BMI (p=ns), although the TE patients showed improved profiles over those with SS exercise, with a significantly lower incidence of flushing, dizziness and nausea/gastrointestinal discomfort (12.9% vs. 28.4%; 19.9% vs. 33.4%; 11.4% vs. 19.2%, respectively; all p<0.05). Regarding the hemodynamic response, we did not observe significant changes in SBP and HR after regadenoson administration across BMI categories. Comparing the TE and SS groups, no significant changes were observed in SBP, but there was a higher increase in HR in the TE group (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Regadenoson in combination with low-level exercise is safe and well tolerated over a wide range of BMI, with TE exercise showing a better side effect profile than SS.
