Gamma imaging boasts highsensitivity for breast cancer
Breast-specific gamma imaging has the highest sensitivity for thedetection of invasive lobular carcinoma, according to a study in theAmerican Journal of Roentgenology.
Breast-specific gamma imaging has the highest sensitivity for the detection of invasive lobular carcinoma, according to a study in the American Journal of Roentgenology.
Dr. Rachel Brem, from the radiology department at George Washington University in Washington, DC, and colleagues conducted a retrospective multicenter study of women with biopsyproven disease (2009;192:379-383).
Twenty-six women with 28 biopsy-proven invasive lobular carcinomas were included. All patients underwent mammography and breast-specific gamma imaging. Mammo-grams showed sensitivity of 79%, the researchers found. Gamma camera imaging showed a sensitivity of 93%.
Study Reaffirms Low Risk for csPCa with Biopsy Omission After Negative Prostate MRI
December 19th 2024In a new study involving nearly 600 biopsy-naïve men, researchers found that only 4 percent of those with negative prostate MRI had clinically significant prostate cancer after three years of active monitoring.
Study Examines Impact of Deep Learning on Fast MRI Protocols for Knee Pain
December 17th 2024Ten-minute and five-minute knee MRI exams with compressed sequences facilitated by deep learning offered nearly equivalent sensitivity and specificity as an 18-minute conventional MRI knee exam, according to research presented recently at the RSNA conference.
Can Radiomics Bolster Low-Dose CT Prognostic Assessment for High-Risk Lung Adenocarcinoma?
December 16th 2024A CT-based radiomic model offered over 10 percent higher specificity and positive predictive value for high-risk lung adenocarcinoma in comparison to a radiographic model, according to external validation testing in a recent study.
