PET scans for decision-making in metastatic renal cell carcinoma: a single-institution evaluation.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Variations in the incidence of cancer can be influenced by diet and specific lifestyles. In the last years, diet has been evaluated as an important factor in the development of ovarian cancer, even though the results have not been consistent. Dietary factors related to the risk of ovarian cancer in Mexican w...
