Ultralow-dose FDG-PET gives boost to lung screening
By Frances Rylands-Monk
Swiss researchers have shown that machine-learning algorithms can assist fully automated FDG-PET lung cancer detection -- even at simulated very low effective radiation doses of 0.11 mSv -- and it can do so at little cost to sensitivity and specificity.

Momentum gathers behind MRI for lung cancer screening
By Abraham Kim
CHICAGO - Nearly a decade ago, CT surpassed x-ray as the imaging modality of choice for lung cancer screening. But could there be an even better option for the test? Researchers from the U.S., Switzerland, and Germany made the case for MRI in a session on Monday at RSNA 2018.

Dutch develop novel 3D method to track central airways
By Cynthia E. Keen
A group from Amsterdam has examined conebeam CT projections of a 3D-printed thorax phantom and used prototype software for template generation, template matching, and triangulation to determine bronchus motion. They think markerless 3D monitoring can help in radiotherapy.

NELSON gives Europeans go-ahead for CT lung screening
By Abraham Kim
CT lung cancer screening got a big boost this week from researchers in the Dutch-Belgian Randomized Lung Cancer Screening (NELSON) trial, who at the 2018 World Conference on Lung Cancer in Toronto reported a 26% mortality reduction for men in the trial. The findings could give the green light to CT lung screening in Europe.
