Radiology ‘Game-Changer’: FDA Approves PET Agent for Enhanced Detection of Coronary Artery Disease
September 28th 2024Offering higher diagnostic efficacy than SPECT imaging for coronary artery disease (CAD) detection, the PET myocardial perfusion imaging agent Flyrcado™ (flurpiridaz F 18, GE HealthCare) provides unit dose availability and effectiveness in imaging patients with high BMI.
Study for Emerging PET/CT Agent Reveals ‘New Standard’ for Detecting Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma
September 11th 2024Results from a multicenter phase 3 trial showed that the PET/CT imaging agent (89Zr)Zr-girentuximab had an 85.5 percent mean sensitivity rate for the diagnosis of clear cell renal cell carcinoma.
Researchers Show Higher Breast Cancer Upstaging Rate with 18F-FAPI PET/CT
September 9th 2024The imaging agent 18F-FAPI PET/CT demonstrated greater than a 45 percent higher sensitivity rate in comparison to 18F-FDG PET/CT for the detection of axillary and extraaxillary regional lymph node metastases, according to a lesion-based analysis from a recent study.
Emerging PET Imaging Agent Gets FDA’s Breakthrough Therapy Designation for Cardiac Amyloidosis
August 5th 2024Reportedly the only imaging agent to garner a breakthrough therapy designation for cardiac amyloidosis, 124I-evuzamitide has demonstrated robust sensitivity for the condition as well as a favorable safety profile.
Systematic Review: PET/MRI May be More Advantageous than PET/CT in Cancer Imaging
July 18th 2024While PET/MRI and PET/CT had comparable sensitivity for patient-level regional nodal metastases and lesion-level recurrence, the authors of a systematic review noted that PET/MRI had significantly higher accuracy in breast cancer and colorectal cancer staging.
