Volumetic tool guides surgery
Lesions located inside and beyond the bowel demonstrate the extent of disease in a fused PET/CT image acquired at the National Cancer Center Hospital East in Kashiwa City, Japan, using an eight-slice Discovery LS from GE Healthcare. The volumetric scan fuses data acquired during tumor uptake of FDG and contrast-enhanced CT. Such data sets typically host the reconstruction of transaxial, coronal, and sagittal slices, but, in this case, the data were fashioned into a volumetric image that served as a guide for surgical resection of the tumor. Experimental software integrated PET data regarding the tumor and CT data representing vasculature, selected soft tissue, and bone. GE has developed a commercial version, the Advantage Windows Volume Viewer Plus. (Provided by GE Healthcare)

April 24th 2024One of the recommendations from the European Society of Breast Imaging (EUSOBI) is annual breast MRI exams starting at 25 years of age for women deemed to be at high risk for breast cancer.
Study Reveals Benefits of Photon-Counting CT for Assessing Acute Pulmonary Embolism
April 23rd 2024In comparison to energy-integrating detector CT for the workup of suspected acute pulmonary embolism, the use of photon-counting detector CT reduced radiation dosing by 48 percent, according to newly published research.
