Video: Roberto Soto, MD, of Precision Imaging, shows a recent PET imaging case using Amyvid, recently approved for evaluation of Alzheimer's.
Roberto Soto, MD, founder and medical officer of Precision Imaging, shows a recent PET imaging case using Amyvid. The radioactive diagnostic agent Amyvid, or florbetapir, was FDA-approved in April for use in the evaluation of Alzheimer’s disease.
In this case, the patient also had an MRI, as seen in the top row. The studies were fused to show additional information. This is a negative Amyvid case, meaning no amyloid plaque was detected and there was a reduced likelihood the impairment is due to Alzheimer’s.
CT Study: AI Algorithm Comparable to Radiologists in Differentiating Small Renal Masses
May 14th 2024An emerging deep learning algorithm had a lower AUC and sensitivity than urological radiologists for differentiating between small renal masses on computed tomography (CT) scans but had a 21 percent higher sensitivity rate than non-urological radiologists, according to new research.
