New Meta-Analysis Examines MRI Assessment for Treatment of Esophageal Cancer
September 12th 2024Diffusion-weighted MRI provided pooled sensitivity and specificity rates of 82 percent and 81 percent respectively for gauging patient response to concurrent chemoradiotherapy for esophageal cancer, according to new meta-analysis.
Diffusion-Weighted MRI and Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Rectal Cancer: What New Research Reveals
September 3rd 2024In a comparison of imaging assessments to gauge the effectiveness of neoadjuvant chemotherapy for rectal adenocarcinoma, researchers found the combination of diffusion-weighted imaging and MR tumor regression grading had a 90 percent area under the curve (AUC) and a negative predictive value (NPV) of 93 percent.
FDA Expands Clearance of MRI-Guided AI Platform for Deep Brain Stimulation and Lesioning Techniques
September 3rd 2024Utilizing a new machine learning model, the OptimMRI software may improve radiosurgery applications and lesioning techniques such as MRI-guided focused ultrasound through enhanced targeting of the inferolateral part of the ventral intermediate nucleus (VIM).
New Research Highlights Emerging MRI Contrast Agent for Bladder Imaging
August 21st 2024A new MRI contrast agent may provide a viable non-invasive alternative for the detection of interstitial cystitis, according to preliminary research presented at the 5th International Consultation on Interstitial Cystitis Japan (ICICJ) in Kyoto, Japan.
MRI Study Offers Insights on Traumatic Brain Injury and Cerebral Microbleeds
August 19th 2024Detecting cerebral microbleed (CMB) in one of six healthy adults in a new study, researchers also found that CMB was the only MRI marker of small vessel disease (SVD) to be significantly associated with traumatic brain injury (TBI).
Breast MRI Study Examines Common Factors with False Negatives and False Positives
July 24th 2024The absence of ipsilateral breast hypervascularity is three times more likely to be associated with false-negative findings on breast MRI and non-mass enhancement lesions have a 4.5-fold likelihood of being linked to false-positive results, according to new research.
Systematic Review: PET/MRI May be More Advantageous than PET/CT in Cancer Imaging
July 18th 2024While PET/MRI and PET/CT had comparable sensitivity for patient-level regional nodal metastases and lesion-level recurrence, the authors of a systematic review noted that PET/MRI had significantly higher accuracy in breast cancer and colorectal cancer staging.
