The MGH study uses Hounsfield units to stratify bone disease and more accurately, identify osteoblastic lesions. Of note, a similar strategy to identify and characterize adrenal lesions has been ...

A HITHERTO infrequently recognized abnormality in patients with osteoblastic metastases is the occurrence of hypocalcemia. It has usually been held that calcium levels are normal in this situation.

Very importantly, impairment of osteoblastic niche function is not restricted to G-CSF. It is also observed during mobilization elicited by KIT Ligand and Flt3 ligand with similar downregulation ...

CT attenuation measurements can be used to distinguish untreated osteoblastic (bone-related) metastases from enostoses (benign bone lesions), a team of researchers has found. A team of Boston ...

37.7±7.6 years). Gene expression and in vitro and in vivo bone-forming assays were used to establish the osteoblastic lineage of sorted cells. Cells positive for osteocalcin and cells positive ...

To gain deeper insights into the impact of miR-18a-5p on osteoblastic lesions, the researchers conducted a series of comprehensive laboratory experiments. By inhibiting miR-18a-5p in both PCa ...

The Canadian Cancer Society state that osteolytic metastases are more common than osteoblastic metastases and often occur with metastatic breast cancer. Osteoblastic metastasis occurs when cancer ...

01). However, 18FDG detected fewer bone metastases compared with 99mTc MDP scintigraphy in a subgroup of patients with osteoblastic disease (P < .05). Higher SUVs were observed for osteolytic than ...

Bone fracture healing can be augmented with the application of pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs), but a consensus regarding idealized conditions is lacking. A new study characterizes the in ...
