The researcher was seeking funding to further her study on the development of psychosis based on findings visualized on PET imaging.

On MRI and PET brain scans, women who were exposed to a small dose of nicotine showed altered activity in the thalamus region of the brain.

These patients are at greatest risk of developing lung metastases within three months of surgery.

Radiation-induced hypothyroidism is common yet underdiagnosed, potentially owing to a lack of follow-up consensus in patients treated with radiation therapy for head and neck cancers.

Experts involved in the research suggested that these findings indicate a potential role for FAPI PET/CT imaging in detecting changes in myocardial fibrosis, noting that it could be more sensitive to earlier changes than standard cardiac MRI.

These new findings could help providers differentiate and manage CP associated with different levels of motor impairment, authors of the study indicated.

Researchers believe the new method of assessing treatment responses could pave the way for developing new cancer therapeutics.

Previously, CMS determined that coverage for patients receiving treatment was dependent on their being enrolled in a CMS-approved clinical trial under coverage with evidence development (CED).
