Imaging-Based Deep Learning for Predicting Desmoid Tumor Progression Open
Desmoid tumors (DTs) are non-metastasizing and locally aggressive soft-tissue mesenchymal neoplasms. Those that become enlarged often become locally invasive and cause significant morbidity. DTs have a varied pattern of clinical presentati…

68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT Follow-Up of Patients with Prostate Cancer with Bone Metastases Who Had Reduced Bone Density after Androgen Deprivation Therapy Open
Bone metastases from prostate cancer (PCa) often show an increase in density on computed tomography (CT) after successful androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Density may be reduced, however, as the disease progresses or, contrarily, when d…
