PET/MRI accurately predicts risk of prostate cancer recurrence after prostatectomy

by Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging  Left: Maximum intensity projection of 68Ga-PSMA PET in a patient with newly diagnosed prostate cancer shows intense uptake in the primary prostate lesion and focal uptake in multiple lymph nodes consistent with metastatic disease. Right: Kaplan–Meier curves show that high uptake and presence of metastatic disease on PET are...

PET/MRI machine learning model can eliminate sentinel lymph node biopsy in majority of breast cancer patients

by Society of Nuclear Medicine Patients with newly diagnosed breast cancer receive a PET/MRI scan to investigate axillary lymph node involvement. The radiologist then assesses whether lymph node involvement is present (nodal positive vs. nodal negative) based on easily assessable morphological and metabolic lymph node criteria. Based on these data, a random forest model is...
