JNCI study revives debate over mammography's mortality benefit

Does mammography really save lives? That's the question raised by a new study from France published on 17 July in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute, which analyzed data from Sweden to conclude that there is no evidence that mammography screening has an impact on mortality from breast cancer in the country.

Digital chest tomosynthesis: A 'mammogram for lungs'?

Italian researchers presenting at this week's European Lung Cancer Conference in Geneva believe that digital chest tomosynthesis could eventually become a "mammogram for the lungs" by enabling lung cancer screening of high-risk individuals -- at a lower cost than CT.

Unfilled vacancies and disparities persist in nuclear medicine

Nuclear medicine specialists have high career satisfaction, but unfilled vacancies and career disparities persist, finds a workforce survey by the European Association of Nuclear Medicine (EANM).

Dual PET imaging in Case Two illustrates a patient with discordant disease. FDG PET (b & d) shows FDG uptake in tail of pancreas primary lesion (yellow arrow), as well as multiple hepatic metastases (yellow boxes), with enlarged liver span. DOTATATE PET on left (a) shows several hepatic metastases that do not demonstrate DOTATATE uptake above background of liver parenchyma. The liver lesions in (c) demonstrate moderate FDG uptake in liver lesions, with no corresponding DOTATATE avidity (white box) or central photopenia (white arrow). This discordance in dual PET imaging corresponds to a NETPET score of 5. This suggests de-differentiated disease and a less favorable prognosis. The patient was not suitable for Lutate treatment and received chemotherapy.
