Catch up on emerging research findings presented at the Society for Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) 2023 conference.
From molecular imaging insights on obesity and kinetic modeling to bolster PET tracer quantification for cardiac amyloidosis to the role of PET imaging in de-escalating breast cancer treatment, promising research for challeging conditions was in abundance at the Society of Nuclear Imaging and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) 2023 conference in Chicago. Review the slideshow below to check out some of the new research highlights from the conference.
New Analysis Forecasts Substantial Cost Savings with the Use of Photon Counting CT for CCTA
March 8th 2025The use of ultra-high-resolution photon-counting CT in the evaluation of stable chest pain may significantly reduce follow-up tests and invasive coronary angiography (ICA) procedures, possibly resulting in millions in health-care cost savings, according to a cost-effectiveness analysis presented recently at the European Congress of Radiology.
Can Deep Learning Ultra-Fast bpMRI Have an Impact in Prostate Cancer Imaging?
March 3rd 2025A deep learning-enhanced ultra-fast bpMRI protocol offered similar sensitivity for csPCa as mpMRI with an 80 percent reduction in scan time, according to research findings presented at the European Congress of Radiology (ECR) conference.
ECR Mammography Study: Pre-Op CEM Detects 34 Percent More Multifocal Masses than Mammography
February 28th 2025In addition to contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) demonstrating over a 90 percent detection rate for multifocal masses, researchers found that no significant difference between histological measurements and CEM, according to study findings presented at the European Congress of Radiology.
