Ablative RT doubles survival in patients with ‘supermassive’ bile duct tumors

Traditionally, patients with very large tumors were not treated with high-dose ablative RT due to safety concerns.

PET/CT metric improves outcome predictions in Pluvicto patients

The inclusion of total tumor volume (TTV) produces prediction models with better discriminatory ability.

March 31, 2026

PSMA-PET images. (A) Representative examples illustrate the variability in the total tumor volume (TTV) among patients stratified by the number of metastatic lesions. (B) Case examples demonstrate TTV segmentation across a range of TTV values. Notably, as the tumor volume increased, a visible decrease in radiopharmaceutical uptake by normal organs is observed, particularly in the salivary glands, kidneys, and liver (denoted by brackets), a phenomenon known as the “sink effect.” SUV = standardized uptake value.

New recommendations issued on tau PET imaging

By AuntMinnie.com staff writers

Standardized imaging procedures are essential to facilitate the integration of tau PET into clinical workflows.
