The identification of bone lesions is crucial in the diagnostic assessment of multiple myeloma (MM). Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT can capture the abnormal molecular expression of CXCR-4 in addition to anatomical changes. However, whole-body detection of doze...
OBJECTIVE: Using CT texture analysis and machine learning methods, this study aims to distinguish the lesions imaged via 68Ga-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET)/CT as metastatic and completely responded in pa...
Lymphatic spread determines treatment decisions in prostate cancer (PCa) patients. 68Ga-PSMA-PET/CT can be performed, although cost remains high and availability is limited. Therefore, computed tomography (CT) continues to be the most used modality f...

Accurate delineation of the intraprostatic gross tumor volume (GTV) is a prerequisite for treatment approaches in patients with primary prostate cancer (PCa). Prostate-specific membrane antigen PET (PSMA PET) may outperform MRI in GTV detection. Howe...
OBJECTIVE: This study evaluates the feasibility of direct scatter and attenuation correction of whole-body 68Ga-PSMA PET images in the image domain using deep learning.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and feasibility of Tc-based prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) robot-assisted-radioguided surgery to aid or improve the intraoperative detection of lymph node metastases during primary rob...
OBJECTIVE: The feasibility of tracer production of technetium (Tc)-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-I&S sterile cold kit, imaging with single photon emission tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT), and Tc-PSMA-radioguided robot-assisted l...
BACKGROUND: Extended pelvic nodal dissection (ePLND) represents the gold standard for nodal staging in prostate cancer (PCa). Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) radioguided surgery (RGS) could identify lymph node invasion (LNI) during robot-as...
OBJECTIVES: Our work aims to study the feasibility of a deep learning algorithm to reduce the Ga-FAPI radiotracer injected activity and/or shorten the scanning time and to investigate its effects on image quality and lesion detection ability.
