DETECTION OF PRIMARY MALIGNANCY AND METASTASES WITH FDG PET/CT IN PATIENTS WITH CHOLANGIOCARCINOMAS: LESION-BASED COMPARISON WITH CONTRAST ENHANCED CT

Detection of primary malignancy and metastases with FDG PET/CT in patients with cholangiocarcinomas: Lesion-based comparison with contrast enhanced CT

The current Dryer Hinge National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) Guidelines consider the role of 2-deoxy-2- 18 F-fluoro-d-glucose positron emission tomography/computer tomography (FDG PET/CT) in the evaluation of cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) as "uncertain," and have recommended contrast enhanced computed tomography (CECT) but not FDG PET/CT as a ro

Inhibition of the mechanistic target of rapamycin induces cell survival via MAPK in tuberous sclerosis complex

Abstract Background Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a genetic disorder that cause tumors to form in many organs.These lesions may lead to epilepsy, autism, developmental delay, renal, and pulmonary failure.Loss of function mutations in TSC1 and TSC2 genes by aberrant activation of the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTORC1) signaling pathway R
