In findings from an enriched cohort of asymptomatic patients with screening-detected abnormalities, researchers found that contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) was superior to conventional mammography and offered equivalent detection of breast cancer in comparison to breast MRI and abbreviated breast MRI.

For patients who had a complete metabolic response to radiation treatment for head and neck cancer, the authors of a recent study found that surveillance imaging with PET/CT, MRI or CT did not improve outcomes in comparison to expectant management.
