Initial detection of metastatic prostate cancer via 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT was significantly associated with PSA values > 20 ng/ml, ISUP grade > 3 and MRI T-stage > 3, according to research presented recently at the SNMMI conference.

In a recent interview at the SNMMI conference, David Gauden, D.Phil, discussed key findings from new research evaluating the use of the PET radiotracer 18F-flotufolastat in patients with primary prostate cancer (PCa) and men with biochemical recurrence of PCa.

Improved assessment of axillary lymph node status with FAPI PET/CT led to restaging of nearly 71 percent of patients with breast cancer, according to new research presented at the SNMMI 2024 conference.

Ultra-low dosing with long axial field-of-view positron emission tomography (PET) scanners facilitates qualitative PET imaging at a more than 50 percent reduction of conventional radiation dosing with PET, according to new research presented at the SNMMI 2024 conference.

Deep transfer learning may elevate the capability of whole-body PET/CT scans to diagnose multiple cancers, ranging from breast cancer and lung cancer to melanoma and prostate cancer, according to new research presented at the SNMMI conference.

In an interview at the SNMMI 2024 conference, Oliver Sartor, M.D. discussed key findings from new award-winning research evaluating the potential of Pluvicto in treating patients with taxane-naïve metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

In a cohort of 85 patients with biomechanical recurrence of prostate cancer and PSA values less than 2 ng/mL, positive findings on PET imaging with PSMA-18F DCFPyL led to treatment changes in the majority of patients who had negative findings on conventional imaging, according to new research presented at the SNMMI conference.

Emphasizing enhanced time-of-flight performance and an energy-efficient design, the Biograph Trinion PET/CT system can reportedly be utilized for a variety of imaging needs, ranging from theranostic applications to neurology imaging.

In a recent interview, Cathy Cutler, Ph.D., shared her perspective on a number of topics affecting nuclear medicine, ranging from isotope availability and reimbursement challenges for diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals to increasing patient interest in PET imaging.

For patients with interstitial lung disease, FAPI PET/CT was more effective than 18F-FDG PET/CT at predicting progressive pulmonary fibrosis according to comparative study findings presented at the 2024 Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) Annual Meeting.

The use of 90Y-FAPI-46 radioligand therapy resulted in controlled disease progression in nearly half of a 30-person cohort largely comprised of patients with advanced sarcomas, according to new research presented at the 2024 Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) Annual Meeting.

In addition to new advances in PET/CT imaging to facilitate precision imaging, the company will also unveil a device at the SNMMI conference that allows in-house production of commercial PET tracers.

Offering comparable sensitivity to radiologists for detecting contralateral breast cancer on mammography images, an emerging adjunctive AI software may also facilitate earlier diagnosis, according to study findings presented at the at the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting.

Additional carcinoma in the ipsilateral breast was detected on preoperative MRI exams in 24 out of 102 women prior to lumpectomy and mastectomy procedures, according to new study findings presented at the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting in Chicago.

An AI model that includes extracted radiomic features from CT scans more than doubled the sensitivity rate for preoperative prediction of lung cancer recurrence in comparison to traditional TNM staging, according to study findings to be presented at the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting in Chicago.

In addition to detecting missed lung nodules on X-rays, the AI-powered Qure.ai lung cancer continuum platform reportedly automates lung nodule measurement on CT scans and facilitates multimodality reporting.

In a recent lecture at the 2024 ARRS Annual Meeting, Jordana Phillips, MD, discussed the role of contrast-enhanced mammography in staging breast cancer, evaluating response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and recalls from screening.

Researchers found a 98.3 percent concordance between attending radiology reports and AI assessments for possible cervical spine fractures on CT, according to new research presented at the 2024 ARRS Annual Meeting.

For neuroradiologists, the Signa Magnus 3T MRI system may offer enhanced visualization of the brain microstructure, microvasculature, and function.
