We are delighted to announce that the inaugural issue (Volume 1, Issue 1) of The Journal of Diagnostic and Theranostic Imaging is now live! Explore cutting-edge case reports and imaging studies that showcase innovation and clinical impact in diagnostic imaging and theranostic therapies:
- Detection of an Isolated Solitary Brain Metastasis from Colon Adenocarcinoma via 18F-FDG PET/CT: A Rare Case and Its Multimodal Management
Nilüfer Bıçakcı, Fatih Batı
In this first report, a 74-year-old patient developed an isolated temporal-lobe metastasis 18 months after curative surgery for sigmoid colon adenocarcinoma. Hybrid 18F-FDG PET/CT proved essential in ruling out extracranial disease and guiding an aggressive combination of surgery and stereotactic radiosurgery, resulting in a one-year disease-free follow-up. - FDG-Avid Non-Ossifying Fibromas Mimicking Metastases in Pediatric Ewing Sarcoma: A Diagnostic Pitfall on PET/CT
Emine Göknur Işık, Begüm Arça, Zuhal Bayramoğlu, Ülkü Miray Yıldırım
This case highlights two benign non-ossifying fibromas in a 15-year-old Ewing sarcoma patient that exhibited higher FDG uptake than the primary tumor, underscoring the importance of correlating PET findings with CT morphology to avoid misdiagnosis. - Detection and Implications of Increased PSMA Uptake in a Thyroid Nodule Following Lu-177 PSMA Therapy: A Case of Hürthle Cell Variant Thyroid Papillary Carcinoma Identified by Ga-68 PSMA PET/CT
Adem Maman
A 70-year-old prostate cancer patient showed unexpected Ga-68 PSMA uptake in a thyroid nodule after Lutetium-177 PSMA therapy. Fine-needle aspiration confirmed a Hürthle cell variant papillary thyroid carcinoma, illustrating a rare but crucial PSMA imaging pitfall. - Rare Discordance Between 68Ga-DOTATATE and 68Ga-PSMA PET/CT in a Metastatic Ileal Neuroendocrine Tumor: A Case Report and Literature Review
Fatih Batı, Nilüfer Bıçakcı
In a midgut carcinoid patient, intense DOTATATE uptake contrasted sharply with absent PSMA tracer activity, revealing heterogeneity of receptor expression in neuroendocrine tumors and reinforcing the primacy of somatostatin receptor imaging. - Radiological Features of Giant Pelvic Chondrosarcoma
Neslihan Göktürk, Turgay Kara
Detailed CT and MRI findings of a 63-year-old patient’s massive pelvic chondrosarcoma emphasize the complementary roles of imaging modalities in tumor characterization and surgical planning. - Pre- and Post-Treatment Hybrid Imaging Findings in a Case of Tracheobronchial Cartilage Calcification Induced by Long-term Warfarin Sodium Therapy
Güler Silov, Aslı Ayan
This letter to the editor documents SPECT/CT and PET/CT changes in diffuse tracheobronchial cartilage calcification following chronic warfarin use, expanding our understanding of long-term anticoagulant effects on cartilage.
