Catch up on recent interviews with Jeremie Calais, M.D. MSc, Krishna Patel, M.D., Phillip Kuo, M.D. Ph.D, and more faculty from the Society for Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) 2023 conference.
Whether it was strategies to address the workforce pipeline in nuclear medicine, emerging insights on positron emission tomography (PET) in the management of prostate cancer and new research on the imaging of clear cell renal cell carcinoma, we learned quite a bit during on-site interviews at the Society of Nuclear Imaging and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) 2023 conference in Chicago. Review the slideshow below to check out some of our on-site interviews from the conference.
Study of Ofatumumab for Multiple Sclerosis Shows 'Profoundly Suppressed MRI Lesion Activity'
April 17th 2024The use of continuous ofatumumab in patients within three years of a relapsing multiple sclerosis diagnosis led to substantial reductions in associated lesions on brain MRI scans, according to research recently presented at the American Academy of Neurology (AAN) conference.
Could a Deep Learning Model for Mammography Improve Prediction of DCIS and Invasive Breast Cancer?
April 15th 2024Artificial intelligence (AI) assessment of mammography images may significantly enhance the prediction of invasive breast cancer and ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) in women with breast cancer, according to new research presented at the Society for Breast Imaging (SBI) conference.
Interventional Radiology Study Shows Low Breast Cancer Recurrence 16 Months After Cryoablation
March 29th 2024In a cohort of patients with invasive breast cancer and tumor sizes ranging between 0.3 to 9 cm, image-guided cryoablation was associated with a 10 percent recurrence rate at 16 months, according to research recently presented at the Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR) conference.
Emerging Insights on MRI-Guided Transurethral Ultrasound Ablation for Prostate Cancer
March 21st 2024For men with prostate cancer, the use of MRI-guided transurethral ultrasound ablation (TULSA) led to a 92 percent decrease in median prostate volume at one year, according to new research recently presented at Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR) conference.
Could Cloud-Based 'Progressive Loading' be a Boon for Radiology Workflows?
March 13th 2024The newly launched Progressive Loading feature, available through RamSoft’s OmegaAI software, reportedly offers radiologist rapid uploading of images that is faster than on-site networks and other cloud-based systems regardless of the network radiologists are using.
ECR Study Finds Mixed Results with AI on Breast Ultrasound
March 6th 2024While adjunctive use of AI led to significantly higher specificity and accuracy rates in detecting cancer on breast ultrasound exams in comparison to unassisted reading by breast radiologists, researchers noted that 12 of 13 BI-RADS 3 lesions upgraded by AI were ultimately benign, according to research presented at the European Congress of Radiology.
