Líneas de investigación Cancer and myositis. Relevance of the anti-p155 antibodies and importance of the screening for cancer by Positron Emission Tomography and Computed Tomography (PET/CT). Anti-p155 antibodies seem to be useful for the diagnosis of paraneoplastic myopathies. We have studied their prevalence and their diagnosis value in a cohort of 137 patients with inflammatory myopathies and we have observed that they have a high negative predictive value. On the other hand, the screening by PET/TC does not contribute much to the conventional screening of cancer in these patients.
