Nycomed Amersham this month completed the divestiture of its remaining holdings in Londonderry, NH-based radiopharmaceutical firm Diatide. On June 16, Nycomed finalized the sale of a total of 1.5 million shares of Diatide common stock to a group of private investors. The terms of the sale were not disclosed by either firm.
The two companies will continue their joint marketing efforts for AcuTect, Diatides FDA-approved acute deep vein thrombosis agent, and for NeoTect, its agent for lung cancer imaging, which is pending approval. Diatide has begun an aggressive business development program in an effort to find other marketing partners for products in its R&D pipeline, the company said. The sale of Buckinghamshire, U.K.-based Nycomeds shares brings to a close a partnership begun in 1995, when Nycomed made a $10 million equity investment in Diatide, then known as Diatech (SCAN 8/30/95).

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.
