PET/CT can predict therapy response in some lymphomas
PET/CT can predict therapy response in some lymphomas
A Johns Hopkins University study added to the growing base of evidence showing that quantitative PET/CT can predict the response to treatment in patients with bone metastases from lymphomas.
Dr. Behnaz Goudarzi and colleagues retrospectively reviewed PET/CT reports from 1100 patients with lymphoma. They identified a subset of 28 patients with aggressive lymphoma and bone lesions with high FDG uptake and compared standardized uptake values and Hounsfield unit values for these lesions before and after therapy. Evidence of treatment response came in the form of significant decrease in FDG uptake and increase in tumor density. They presented their findings at the 2007 RSNA meeting .
Can Generative AI Facilitate Simulated Contrast Enhancement for Prostate MRI?
January 14th 2025Deep learning synthesis of contrast-enhanced MRI from non-contrast prostate MRI sequences provided an average multiscale structural similarity index of 70 percent with actual contrast-enhanced prostate MRI in external validation testing from newly published research.
Can MRI Have an Impact with Fertility-Sparing Treatments for Endometrial and Cervical Cancers?
January 9th 2025In a literature review that includes insights from recently issued guidelines from multiple European medical societies, researchers discuss the role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in facilitating appropriate patient selection for fertility-sparing treatments to address early-stage endometrial and cervical cancer.
