Rare finding detected on PSMA-PET: A nonprostatic lung tumor
September 27, 2023 -- A group in Australia has described a rare finding during a prostate cancer restaging PET/CT scan -- a pulmonary tumor embolism. Read More
MRI reveals novel clues to symptoms of long COVID
September 26, 2023 -- A detailed new whole-body MRI study has revealed that patients who are hospitalized for COVID are three times more likely to have some abnormalities in multiple organs, particularly the lungs, brain, and kidneys. Researchers think there is a link with the severity of the illness. Read More
Which PET radiotracer tends to work best for prostate cancer imaging?
September 26, 2023 -- Subtle differences in how prostate-specific membrane antigen-PET radiotracers perform in patients prior to Pluvicto treatment may determine which ones become the future tracers of choice, according to a research team in Germany. Read More
Ultrasound comes to the rescue in Swiss caving emergencies
September 25, 2023 -- Authors from Bern University Hospital have described how point-of-care ultrasound plays a central role in rescue operations from potentially serious caving accidents. One incident involved a speleologist who was hit on the pelvis by a boulder at an altitude of 2000 meters. Read More
Low-dose radiation damages DNA in interventional radiologists
September 25, 2023 -- Long-term exposure to low-dose radiation can cause DNA damage to lymphocyte cells in interventional radiologists -- but significantly, these doctors don't seem to be vulnerable to an increased risk of leukemia, researchers in Slovakia have reported. Read More
