Brachytherapy boosts RFA for lung cancer
Radio-frequency ablation, which has recently been shown to be effective in treating certain lung tumors, might be even more effective in the same population when combined with brachytherapy.
Radio-frequency ablation, which has recently been shown to be effective in treating certain lung tumors, might be even more effective in the same population when combined with brachytherapy.
Brown University researchers treated three patients using the RFA/brachytherapy combination, with a one to 12-month follow-up. They observed tumor shrinkage in the treated area of two patients during follow-up.
RFA-induced tissue necrosis may boost the radioactive seeds' ability to control malignant cells, according to the study published in the September issue of the American Journal of Roentgenology.
MRI-Based AI Radiomics Model Offers 'Robust' Prediction of Perineural Invasion in Prostate Cancer
July 26th 2024A model that combines MRI-based deep learning radiomics and clinical factors demonstrated an 84.8 percent ROC AUC and a 92.6 percent precision-recall AUC for predicting perineural invasion in prostate cancer cases.
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.
Can Polyenergetic Reconstruction Help Resolve Streak Artifacts in Photon Counting CT?
July 22nd 2024New research looking at photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) demonstrated significantly reduced variation and tracheal air density attenuation with polyenergetic reconstruction in contrast to monoenergetic reconstruction on chest CT.
