No full textPET/MRI in gynecological tumors
No full textThe diagnostic approach to gynecological tumors includes anatomical and molecular imaging methods, representing a strong support for clinicians to define tumor extension, to plan the best treatment strategy and patient management. The possibility of combining morphological and functional information in a single examination, using hybrid positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI) technique, represents a very promising tool in the different settings of gynaecologic tumors. In the present review, the current literature and potential clinical applications of PET/MRI in the most common types of gynecological tumors are discussed. The role of PET/MRI is in staging, restaging and after treatment of gynecological tumors is presented, focusing on cervical, endometrial and ovarian cancer. Moreover, the diagnostic accuracy of PET/MRI and the correlation between quantitative parameters (standardized uptake value and apparent diffusion coefficient) of PET/MRI hybrid systems are briefly reviewed

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
