Diagnostic criteria for temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis using standardized uptake value in single-photon emission computed tomography–computed tomography by Jae-Young Kim, Chaeyeon Lee, Young Long Park, Jae-Hoon Lee, Young Hoon Ryu, Jong-Ki Huh

“…SUVpeak was 2.324 ± 0.688 and 4.913 ± 2.749 in the non-OA and OA groups, respectively (p < 0.001). SPECT–CT can be helpful for the diagnosis of patients clinically suspected of having OA. …”

Diagnostic value of nuclear medicine modaities for the detection of sentinel lymph nodes in patients with breast cancer by E. A. Nikolaeva, A. S. Krylov, A. D. Ryzhkov, Kh. Kh. Batyrov, A. A. Parokonnaya, M. E. Bilik, T. V. Zakharova, A. V. Svetlyakova, A. I. Pronin

“…Nuclear medicine imaging of sln with lymphotropic radiopharmaceuticals in patients with breast cancer is an effective and reliable method of navigation during surgery to perform a biopsy. SPECT and SPECT/CT can identify more lymph nodes than planar scintigraphy, improving their anatomical localization, and reducing the false negative rate. …”

Comparison of [99mTc]Tc-FAPI SPECT/CT and [18F]FDG PET/CT as predictive biomarkers for immunotherapy response in gastrointestinal cancer by Yu Zhang, Hong Chen, Dajia Lin, Zhiyi Lin, Jiyun Shi, Hannan Gao, Chenshen Huang, Fangqing Xue, Fan Wang, Wenxin Chen

“…TBR-FDG/TBR-FAPI was the main predictor of better prognosis post-immunotherapy ([stable disease, SD]+[partial response, PR]), with an optimal cut-off of 3.82. [99mTc]Tc-FAPI SPECT/CT can better evaluate peritoneal spread and liver metastases in gastrointestinal cancer. …”
