18F-Fluciclovine PET/CT can help detect previously undetected lesions in patients with biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer, according to a report presented at the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) 2018 Annual Meeting.

In 2014, after telling his primary care physician he had noticed a small bump on his chest, Khevin Barnes was diagnosed with breast cancer. A mastectomy of his left breast followed.

Scientists have developed a novel PET radiotracer that outpaces current methods of imaging for cardiovascular bacterial infections, according to research presented at the 2018 Annual Meeting of the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. 

Stella Kang, MD, MSc, was the lead author of a study that determined women who undergo breast cancer screening with mammography are much more likely to utilize other preventive services than unscreened women. She spoke to Radiology Business about the importance of that study and more.

More than half of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients in Ontario, Canada, are in need of palliative radiotherapy, according to data published in Radiotherapy & Oncology—but many are never treated.

Concurrent chemoradiation therapy is the standard of care for patients with inoperable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but starting the dual treatments more than three days apart from each other can result in poorer overall survival and an 8 percent increased risk of death, according to research published in Clinical Lung Cancer this summer.

A nuclear radiology fellow at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia has developed new PET probes to detect bacterial infections in patients, the Radiological Society of North America announced this week.

Male medical students exploring specialization options are less likely to opt for mammography over other imaging modalities, citing discrimination and fear of sexual harassment suits as drawbacks, according to research out of Callaghan, Australia.
