F18-choline PET/CT imaging guidance for minimally invasive parathyroidectomy (MIP) procedures led to a 29 percent higher percentage of normocalcemia at one month post-op in comparison to imaging guidance with Tc99m-sestaMIBI (MIBI) SPECT/CT, according to new research.

Artificial intelligence facilitated a 96.2 percent sensitivity rate for incidental pulmonary embolism (IPE) on contrast-enhanced CT chest or abdomen exams, according to new prospective research involving over 4,300 patients.

Targeting improvements in workflow, patient consent protocols and adherence to scheduled exam times, researchers noted significant reductions in 15-minute and 30-minute delays with MRI exams for patients who required sedation or general anesthesia.

Emerging research suggests that combining full-field digital mammography and whole-breast ultrasound tomography provides superior sensitivity in detecting BI-RADS 4 lesions and superior specificity in diagnosing BI-RADS 3 lesions than mammography alone in women with dense breasts.

In comparison to radiologists, new MRI research shows an emerging artificial intelligence (AI) model demonstrated a higher AUROC and a 14.8 percent higher positive predictive value for detecting prostate cancer at a mean PI-RADS 3 or greater operating point.

Review the case and test your knowledge to make the correct diagnosis.

Offering a combination of intuitive user-friendly controls and enhanced imaging, the Zenition 90 Motorized C-arm reportedly facilitates workflow efficiencies and bolsters visualization for complex vascular procedures, cardiac interventions, and other clinical procedures.

To keep or not keep boxes from teleradiology workstations handy may boil down to an emphasis on convenience over clutter.

Employing a cut-off of Node-RADS > 2 for differentiating malignant lymph nodes with breast MRI in women with breast cancer, researchers noted average sensitivity and specificity rates of 91.5 percent and 87.4 percent respectively.

In validation testing with 205 18F florbetapir PET scans from 95 patients with Alzheimer’s disease, a deep learning model demonstrated a 93.2 percent accuracy rate and a 97 percent AUC for detecting amyloid-β positivity.

Artificial intelligence (AI) assisted contouring of prostate cancer demonstrated superior balanced accuracy than manual standard-of-care contouring and hemigland contouring with MRI, according to a new study.

The AI-enabled CINA-VCF algorithm can reportedly detect vertebral compression fractures within seconds after assessment of chest or abdominal CT scans.

Improved assessment of axillary lymph node status with FAPI PET/CT led to restaging of nearly 71 percent of patients with breast cancer, according to new research presented at the SNMMI 2024 conference.

Ultra-low dosing with long axial field-of-view positron emission tomography (PET) scanners facilitates qualitative PET imaging at a more than 50 percent reduction of conventional radiation dosing with PET, according to new research presented at the SNMMI 2024 conference.

Deep transfer learning may elevate the capability of whole-body PET/CT scans to diagnose multiple cancers, ranging from breast cancer and lung cancer to melanoma and prostate cancer, according to new research presented at the SNMMI conference.

Have pragmatic needs become the primary driver between wanting to learn and needing to learn new skills and technologies in radiology?

In an interview at the SNMMI 2024 conference, Oliver Sartor, M.D. discussed key findings from new award-winning research evaluating the potential of Pluvicto in treating patients with taxane-naïve metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

In a cohort of 85 patients with biomechanical recurrence of prostate cancer and PSA values less than 2 ng/mL, positive findings on PET imaging with PSMA-18F DCFPyL led to treatment changes in the majority of patients who had negative findings on conventional imaging, according to new research presented at the SNMMI conference.
