MRI links long-COVID brain fog to lung function
MRI shows that lower pulmonary gas exchange in the lungs of long-COVID patients may be associated with cognitive symptoms.
November 26, 2024
Individuals in the study were plotted with the x-axis being rank of pulmonary gas exchange. The black dots show the pulmonary gas exchange ratio (red blood cell to tissue plasma ratio, RBC:mem) on the left y-axis and the blue dots are the cognition scores on the right y-axis. Gas exchange maps of three representative patients from a low, medium, and high pulmonary gas exchange. Image courtesy of RSNA.

FAPI-PET/CT superior to FDG-PET/CT in liver cancer patients
Ga-68 FAPI-PET/CT imaging appears superior to FDG-PET/CT for assessing hepatocellular carcinomas. In a large prospective trial, the approach was more accurate – enough so that it could possibly replace FDG-PET/CT in the future.

Theranostics cost-effective in men with mCRPC
Using theranostic radionuclides such as Ra-223 or Lu-177 to treat men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) is more cost-effective in the long term than traditional chemotherapy and radiotherapy, suggests a study in this session.

Images of a 39-year-old who underwent screening mammography. Right craniocaudal (left) and mediolateral oblique (middle) views from preoperative mammography show suspicious grouped fine pleomorphic calcifications (arrows). After biopsy showed ductal carcinoma of situ (DCIS), patient underwent breast-conserving surgery, yielding final diagnosis of ductal carcinoma in situ (intermediate grade, hormone receptor positive). (Right) Screenshot of an output of a commercial AI tool applied to preoperative mammography. AI detected right breast lesion with score of 95% on both views (concentric colored circles). Present study’s reviewing radiologist deemed AI marking to correspond with site of DCIS.

Could AI scoring help with managing DCIS?
Axial contrast-enhanced CT scan in a 28-year-old premenopausal woman shows an incidentally detected solid-appearing left ovarian lesion (solid arrow) anterior to the uterus (U), associated with trace ascites in the right adnexa and cul de sac (dashed arrows). At pathologic analysis, this was shown to be ovarian dysgerminoma. Two readers misdiagnosed this lesion, one as a leiomyoma and one as an ovarian fibroma.

Tracking and quantitative analysis of diaphragmatic motion and projected lung area (PLA) at dynamic chest radiography (DCR) in a 55-year-old healthy man during deep breathing. (A) Posteroanterior radiograph with purple and green lines indicating the right and left lateral diaphragm apices, respectively. (B) Graph of diaphragmatic motion (in millimeters; y-axis) over time (i.e., frame number; x-axis). The software tracked the position of the diaphragm apex at DCR to obtain these amplitude-time plots of diaphragmatic motion (right lung, purple; left lung, green). The dark blue line corresponds to the frame representing the end of inspiration; the light blue line corresponds to the frame representing the end of expiration. (C) Posteroanterior radiograph shows the PLA (outline), which is the area surrounded by the medial edge of the ribs, the diaphragm, and the edge of the mediastinum. (D) Graph of PLA (in millimeters squared; y-axis) over time (i.e., frame number; x-axis). The software automatically tracked the boundaries of the lung fields and obtained the time-varying curves of the bilateral lung field areas. The blue line corresponds to the frame representing the end of inspiration.
