Clarification
In an article entitled “New PET crystal promises faster scans, better images” (SCAN 10/13/04), we identified a problem in the manufacture of a promising new PET crystal, called the BrilLanCe 380. We stated that “a few bugs in its manufacture still have to be worked out. The biggest is a tendency for the crystal to break.” The developer and manufacturer of this crystal, Saint Gobain Crystals, wishes to emphasize that once encapsulated in a finished detector, there is no problem or issue regarding “breakage” of the BrilLanCe crystal and that the finished detectors are mechanically robust.

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.
