INTRODUCTION: Imaging of somatostatin receptor expressing tumours has been greatly
enhanced by the use of 68 Ga-DOTATOC and PET/CT. METHODS: In this work, a purification …

Hypoxia-inducible factors enhance glioma stemness, and glioma stem cells have an amplified
hypoxic response despite residing within a perivascular niche. Still, little is known about …

Background Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) reported remarkable achievements in
several solid tumours. However, in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) promising results are …

Around 8–12% of patients with advanced colon rectal cancer (CRC) present with BRAF
alterations, in particular V600E mutation, which is associated with right-side, poorly differentiated …

Purpose Patient-specific dosimetry is required to ensure the safety of molecular radiotherapy
and to predict response. Dosimetry involves several steps, the first of which is the …

Autonomous thyroid adenomas (ATAs) are a frequent cause of hyperthyroidism. Mutations in
the genes encoding the TSH receptor (TSHR) or the Gs protein α subunit (GNAS) are found …

Purpose: In this report, we compared endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS), multidetector CT (MDCT),
and Ga-68 DOTATOC PET/CT in patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). We …

Locally advanced pancreatic carcinoma (LAPC) has a poor prognosis and the purpose of
treatment is survival prolongation and symptom palliation. Radiotherapy has been reported to …

Aim: The purpose of the present multicentric study was to review stereotactic body radiotherapy
(SBRT) with or without chemotherapy (CHT) experience in locally advanced pancreatic …

This study evaluated the effect of the combination of three different onlay preparation designs
and two restorative materials on the stress distribution, using 3D-finite element analysis. …
