Alliance Medical of Oxfordshire and M2i of Dublin have formed a joint venture to produce and distribute PET radiopharmaceuticals in the U.K. The new company, called Molecular Imaging Services, will focus on the production of F-18 FDG (fluorodeoxyglucose)
Alliance Medical of Oxfordshire and M2i of Dublin have formed a joint venture to produce and distribute PET radiopharmaceuticals in the U.K. The new company, called Molecular Imaging Services, will focus on the production of F-18 FDG (fluorodeoxyglucose) through a series of dedicated radiopharmaceutical production units. These units will serve both hospital-based PET facilities and mobile PET scanners. Alliance Medical operates two PET scanners in the U.K.: a stationary unit at a facility located in London and a mobile PET scanner serving three hospitals. The mobile PET will soon begin serving a fourth hospital.

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.
