Use of 3-D Mammography Rapidly Expanded From 2015 to 2017
Adoption varied widely by region; uptake more rapid in areas with greater socioeconomic resources.
Diagnosis & Disease Information
PET/CT Imaging for Recurrent PCa Detection More Accurate With PSMA
In a head-to-head comparative study involving PCa patients with early biochemical recurrence following radical surgery, PSMA PET/CT had significantly higher cancer detection rates than fluciclovine PET/CT.
Imaging Studies Critical in Distinguishing Extramedullary Disease in Multiple Myeloma Diagnosis
This case illustrates the role of PET/CT imaging at diagnosis in determining extramedullary disease in patients with multiple myeloma.
Systemic Imaging Not Effective in Detecting Metastatic Disease in Early-Stage Breast Cancer
Study measures the usefulness of systemic imaging in early-stage breast cancer.
Deep Learning Algorithm Can Identify Mammographic Breast Density
Researchers conducted a retrospective study to develop a DL algorithm to assess mammographic breast density.
Combined Digital Screening Best for Detecting Breast Cancers
Digital mammography and tomosynthesis proved superior to digital mammography alone, according to a study.
Physical Examination Sufficient Work-up for Complaints of Breast Pain
A single-center analysis demonstrates likelihood that mastalgia indicates presence of breast cancer and extensiveness of common work-up for the complaint. These findings were presented at SABCS 2017.
Prostate-specific PET and CT Imaging Improves Detection of Disease and Patient Care
Prostate-specific molecular imaging, such as PET and CT, can detect more cancer and improve patient care.
Cancer Risk Not Increased by Childhood Exposure to Diagnostic Radiation
Risk of developing cancer as a result of childhood exposure to medical imaging radiation is not increased in children or adults, a new study reports.
Integrating Texture Features in Breast Tissue Analysis Improved Accuracy of Tissue Classification
A texture analysis technique improved classification of different types of breast tissue imaged with optical coherence microscopy.
