MR, PET pick best biopsy sites for malignant gliomas
Clinicians can now choose from several MR and PET imaging strategies to identify a brain malignancy's most anaplastic area, according to German researchers.
Clinicians can now choose from several MR and PET imaging strategies to identify a brain malignancy's most anaplastic area, according to German researchers.
Dr. Marc-Andre Weber and colleagues from the German Cancer Research Center and nuclear medicine and radiology departments at the University of Heidelberg examined six approaches performed on 23 patients with gliomas. They found that the methods that single out areas of greatest microcirculation (dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI) and cell proliferation (MR spectroscopy or FLT-PET) are the ones best suited for marking the hot spot and enabling optimal grading of malignant gliomas.
The study was presented at the 2007 International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine meeting.
CT Study Reveals Key Indicators for Angiolymphatic Invasion in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
January 15th 2025In computed tomography (CT) scans for patients with solid non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) < 30 mm, emerging research suggests the lollipop sign is associated with a greater than fourfold likelihood of angiolymphatic invasion.
Can MRI-Based AI Enhance Risk Stratification in Prostate Cancer?
January 13th 2025Employing baseline MRI and clinical data, an emerging deep learning model was 32 percent more likely to predict the progression of low-risk prostate cancer (PCa) to clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa), according to new research.
