Findings from a new pilot study showed that low-dose positron emission mammography (PEM) detected 96 percent of malignant index lesions and had a 46 percent lower false-positive rate in comparison to breast MRI.

For the detection of nodal metastases in patients with early-stage cervical cancer, 18F FDG PET-CT offered a sensitivity rate that was double that of CT and 32 percent higher than MRI, according to newly published research.

The use of multiple artificial intelligence (AI) modalities to assess blood vessel density reduction and computed tomography perfusion (CTP) mismatch values facilitated a 93.3 percent detection rate for medium vessel occlusions, according to research presented recently at the International Stroke Conference.
