Excerpt

A 31-year-old female patient, carrier of succinate dehydrogenase subtype D (SDHD) gene mutation, who underwent resection of bilateral head and neck paragangliomas (HNPGLs) 4 years before, performed trimodal 18F-DOPA positron emission tomography (PET)/contrast-enhanced computed tomography (ceCT)/magnetic resonance (MR) fusion imaging for restaging, due to a suspicious relapse of disease in the right head and neck region at previous CT without contrast enhancement. …

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
