Advances in forensic imaging bring new opportunities for radiology

VIENNA - As the reliability of modern forensic imaging rapidly improves, radiologists are being increasingly sought out by forensic pathologists to help examine bodies noninvasively, so they should be prepared to answer that call, according to experts in a special session on advances in forensic imaging on Sunday at ECR 2013.

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.

Zonal segmentation with AI shows promise in prostate cancer

By Maryam Payne

Transition zone-based prostate-specific antigen density performs well as a risk-stratification metric in detecting prostate cancer in patients with negative prebiopsy MRI findings.
