ADC values were reliable for differentiating cervical cancer from normal cervix with high diagnostic accuracy. The ADCs can be used to indicate the degree and histological type of cervical cancer, although there is some overlap. G3 tumours and lower ADCs may indicate poor prognosis. The diagnostic accuracy was equal for both ADC maps.

PMTA for fibroid is feasible and safe, and it is an easy and fast procedure that is minimally invasive.

The study was aimed at assessing the diagnostic performance of 68 Ga-PSMA-617 PET/CT in the detection of prostate cancer (PCa) in patients with a prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level of 4-20 ng/ ml and to compare its efficacy with that of multiparametric MRI (mpMRI). We analyzed the data of 67 consecutive patients with PSA levels of 4-20 ng/ml who almost simultaneously underwent 68 Ga-PSMA-617 PET/CT and mpMRI. 68 Ga-PSMA-617 PET/CT and mpMRI diagnostic performances were compared via receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Of the 67 suspected PCa cases, 33 had pathologically confirmed PCa. 68 Ga-PSMA-617 PET/CT showed a patient-based sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values (PPVs and NPVs) of 87.88%, 88.24%, 87.88%, and 88.24%, respectively. The corresponding values for mpMRI were 84.85%, 52.94%, 63.64%, and 78.26%. The area under the curve values for 68 Ga-PSMA-617 PET/CT and mpMRI were 0.881 and 0.689, respectively. 68 Ga-PSMA-617 PET/CT showed a better diagnostic performance than mpMRI in the detection of PCa in patients with PSA levels of 4-20 ng/ml.
