Ga-68 PMSA PET/CT tops for prostate cancer recurrence
March 25, 2019 -- PET/CT with the radiopharmaceutical gallium-68 (Ga-68) prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) should be the choice over whole-body-MRI for detecting prostate cancer recurrence after radical prostatectomy, a German group advocates in a study published by the European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging.

Discuss Europe seeks progress on adoption of enterprise IT
March 25, 2019 -- As the shift to interdisciplinary care, centralized procurement, and artificial intelligence intensifies, radiology may fall behind if it fails to address significant IT challenges, particularly the approach to software adoption, writes market columnist Stephen Holloway.

Discuss New PET tracers show immense promise in cancer imaging
March 22, 2019 -- Researchers from the German Cancer Research Center in Heidelberg have reported that two new radiotracers achieved substantially shorter image acquisition times than FDG-PET scans and required no fasting or dietary changes in a new study in the Journal of Nuclear Medicine. This may give a timely boost to cancer detection, they say.

Discuss Spanish offer new approach to 3D brain visualization
March 21, 2019 -- Researchers from Spain have developed a technique that allows users to visualize and interact with head MRI and CT scans as 3D models using virtual and augmented reality. The technique relies on proprietary software applications specifically designed for examining radiology images.

Discuss New report finds serious shortage of oncologists in U.K.
March 20, 2019 -- A comprehensive survey by the Royal College of Radiologists has highlighted the scale of the ongoing shortage of oncology staff in the U.K. Its annual census of 62 major cancer centers found more than 7.5% of consultant posts were vacant, and services are maintained only by large amounts of overtime.

Discuss Why patient communication lies at heart of AI success
March 20, 2019 -- To be an important player in the age of artificial intelligence (AI), radiologists must communicate and interact much more with patients, writes Dr. Andreas Gutzeit. Instead of remaining in the background, we must be empathetic doctors committed to our patients, he says.

Discuss DBT slashes biopsy rates of benign breast lesions
March 19, 2019 -- U.K. researchers have found that digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) reduces the benign biopsy rate by as much as 23 percentage points compared with the full-field digital mammography rate, according to a study published online on 19 March in Radiology.

Discuss European radiology confronts stern professional challenges
March 19, 2019 -- Collaborate or die. That was the message of the ECR 2019 session "Imaging Professionals within the EU: Radiologists without borders." With Brexit looming large, it allowed experts to discuss how to promote stronger relations and greater cooperation, despite the fragile political climate.
