Does 18F-fluoro-deoxy-glucose positron emission tomography ( 18F-FDG-PET ) visualize follicular lymphoma irrespective of grading?
18F-FDG-PET scan is a reliable method for staging and follow up of patients with nodal FL irrespective of tumor grading.
Our study demonstrates that GAD, as defined by DSM-IV criteria, shows a substantial overlap with other DSM-IV diagnoses (especially with mood disorders) in the general population. Furthermore, GAD symptoms are frequent in all other disorders included in the mood/anxiety spectrum. Finally, none of the GAD symptoms, apart from muscle tension, distinguished GAD from patients without GAD.
