Purpose The objective of this study is to evaluate the benefits of radioactive iodine (RAI) treatment and the risk of second primary malignant (SPM) in RAI treated patients. Methods The cohort for this analysis consisted of individuals diagnosed with a first primary differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC), reported by SEER database in 1988–2016. Ov...
Article
Background We aimed to assess the analytical characteristics of a new high-sensitivity human thyroid stimulating hormone (hTSH) assay on a light-initiated chemiluminescent immunoassay system (LiCA Smart) and examine the utility of this assay in the context of profoundly low TSH levels (< 0.01 mIU/L). Methods Analytical validations included precisi...

Abstract Background The digital cadmium–zinc–telluride (CZT)-based SPECT system has many advantages, including better spatial and energy resolution. However, the impacts of different acquisition and reconstruction parameters on CZT SPECT quantification might still need to be validated. This study aimed to evaluate the impacts of acquisition paramet...
Article
Objective: To evaluate the impact of reconstruction parameters on the spatial resolution of the tomographic image in single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/computed tomography (CT), and compare spatial resolution between a new polyvalent whole-body Cadmium-Zinc-Telluride camera (CZT-SPECT/CT) and a conventional dual-head Anger camera (...

Background: To evaluate the impact of reconstruction parameters on spatial resolution of tomographic image in SPECT/CT, and to compare spatial resolution between a new polyvalent whole-body Cadmium-Zinc-Telluride camera (CZT-SPECT/CT) and a conventional dual-head Anger camera (conventional SPECT/CT). Spatial resolution was evaluated with four line...

Background Various acquisition and reconstruction parameters may affect the accuracy of the absolute SPECT quantification. However, many of the impacts of these parameters have not well been studied. This study aimed to evaluate the impacts of acquisition parameters (main energy window and acquisition time per frame) and reconstruction parameters (...

Objectives To develop a clinically predictive nomogram model which can maximize patients’ net benefit in terms of predicting the prognosis of patients with thyroid carcinoma based on the 8th edition of the AJCC Cancer Staging method. Methods We selected 134,962 thyroid carcinoma patients diagnosed between 2004 and 2015 from SEER database with deta...

... The authors aimed to validate and develop an AI (artificial intelligence) aid method applied in myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) to help clinicians differentiate ischemia in coronary artery disease. They demonstrated the high predictive value and very good efficacy of this system and therefore found a tool to help radiologists in their clinical practice [80]. Another study published in the European Heart Journal of 2827 patients that analyzed echocardiographic images using AI demonstrated increased accuracy in diagnosing left atrial thrombosis (LAT). ...
... A total of 16,305 unselected clinical patient sera were enrolled for anti-HCV screening tests in parallel on the LiCA ® 500 system (Chemclin Diagnostics, Beijing, China) and the Architect ® i2000SR system (Abbott Laboratories, IL, USA). LiCA ® anti-HCV is a thirdgeneration immunoassay and based on the random-access and fully automatic LiCA ® system (Wang et al., 2022). The assay uses two nano-scale beads (streptavidin-coated sensitizer beads and recombinant viral antigen-coated emission beads) and biotin-labeled antigens to bridge a one-step double-antigen sandwich reaction with the biotin-streptavidin amplification format. ...
... The combination of single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and computed tomography (CT) has been widely employed in clinical practice and research to diagnose several ailments, including myocardial diseases, endocrine disorders, and central nervous system diseases. 1 SPECT/CT has been utilized in brain research for the diagnosis and prognosis of cerebral perfusion, receptor investigations, and neurological disorders. [2][3][4] SPECT, like positron emission tomography (PET), quantifies the radioactivity present in a specific volume of tissue in absolute units, such as kilobecquerels per cubic centimeter. ...
... This incremental gain in the number of iterations results in sharper images, expands the measurement of the endocardial edge, and improves the accuracy of ESV and LVEF, bringing them closer to the true values. Wang et al. also reported that the full width at half-maximum (FWHM) decreased with an increasing number of iterations, and a better reconstructed spatial resolution could be obtained when the number of iterations was greater than 4 [28]. However, there is currently no unified standard for the optimal iteration number. ...
... In this step, a total of 8 variables were evaluated including race, gender, age group, year of diagnosis, histological type, SEER stage, tumour size, and whether to use RAI. To explore whether each variable still had a higher HR value with statistical significance when other variables existed [25], we used 6 variables including race, age group, year of diagnosis, SEER stage, tumour size, and whether to use RAI in the adjusted Cox model for multivariable analyses. The statistical level of significance was set at p < 0.05, and all p value were 2 sided. ...
