PET picks up momentum
More than 40,000 PET procedures were performed between April 1 and June 30, 2001, according to a quarterly study by IMV Medical Information Division. The numbers represent a 7% increase over fourth quarter 2000, during which an estimated 37,400
More than 40,000 PET procedures were performed between April 1 and June 30, 2001, according to a quarterly study by IMV Medical Information Division. The numbers represent a 7% increase over fourth quarter 2000, during which an estimated 37,400 procedures were performed. Driving this surge are oncology procedures, which make up the highest proportion of PET studies. These are followed by neurology and cardiology applications. IMV estimates that 510 facilities in the U.S. performed PET procedures during 2Q 2001. While the majority of sites used coincidence cameras to carry out the studies, more procedures were actually conducted using dedicated PET scanners.
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.
