Use of the radiotherapeutic agent 177Lu-edotreotide (ITM-11) demonstrated significantly higher absorption in gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors than normal organs along with a favorable safety profile, according to SPECT research recently presented at the European Association of Nuclear Medicine (EANM) conference.
FDA Clears AI Software for Large Vessel Occlusion Detection on CT Angiography Scans
Facilitating timely triage, the qER-CTA software enables AI assessment of the internal carotid artery and M1 segment of the middle cerebral artery for possible large vessel occlusions (LVOs).
New Research Assesses the Impact of Pre-Op MRI on Breast Cancer Recurrence
Pre-op breast MRI was associated with a 12.5 percent reduced 5-year cumulative incidence of recurrence for patients who underwent surgery for hormone receptor-negative cancer, according to newly published research.
In a recent interview, Deepa Sheth, M.D., discussed the rising incidence of breast cancer, key considerations in supplemental imaging for women with dense breasts and use of the CIVIE RadPod platform to facilitate consistent quality and imaging reads by fellowship-trained breast radiologists.
Pluvicto in combination with the standard of care led to a 28 percent reduction in the risk of radiographic progression or death in patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC), according to results from the phase III PSMAddition trial presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) conference.
Concordant mammography detection of breast cancer by radiologists and AI had over a threefold higher likelihood of future incidental breast cancer in comparison to positive radiologist assessment and negative AI evaluation, according to new research involving over 82,000 women.
FDA Clears CT-Based AI Software for Assessment of Aortic Aneurysms
Facilitating timely detection and follow-up management of patients with aortic aneurysms, the PRAEVAorta2 software reportedly enables automated measurement of aortic diameters on computed tomography (CT) scans.
What a New Meta-Analysis Reveals About the PI-RADS v2.1 System for Prostate MRI
While a new meta-analysis of the PI-RADS v2.1 criteria showed 96 percent and 88 percent sensitivity rates for PI-RADS category > 3 and PI-RADS category > 4 assessments respectively, researchers noted a high risk of bias in 29 percent of the reviewed studies.
GE HealthCare Unveils Enhancements to Venue Point-of-Care Ultrasound Systems
New enhancements for the Venue POCUS devices include automated labeling of anatomical landmarks with Nerveblox to facilitate 12 common peripheral nerve blocks and contrast-enhanced ultrasound geared to abdominal injury assessments.
Current Perspectives on Prostate Cancer and Emerging Theranostic Agents, Part 2
In the second part of a recent interview, Emmanuel S. Antonarakis, M.D. discusses PSMA PET agents in current trials and cell surface proteins that may offer targeting utility in prostate cancer imaging beyond PSMA.
Can the Emerging InteleHeart Platform Facilitate Improved Efficiency with Cardiology and Radiology?
Through enhanced data interoperability and access to patient histories, the cloud-based InteleHeart may facilitate better communication and workflow efficiencies for radiologists and cardiologists.
