FAPI-PET/CT superior to FDG-PET/CT in assessing liver cancer
A recent study suggests that PET/CT imaging with a FAPI radiotracer is superior to F-18 FDG-PET/CT for assessing patients with liver cancer.

Two cases of pathologically confirmed intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas in 68-year-old male patients. In both cases (A-H, case 1; I-P, case 2), CT scans (B, F, case 1; J, N, case 2) revealed intrahepatic bile duct dilation and suspected nodular lesions. While F-18 FDG PET/CT (A, C, D, case 1; I, K, L, case 2) failed to demonstrate abnormal tracer uptake (SUVmax 3.5, TBR 1.3 in Case 1; SUVmax 2.6, TBR 1.2 in Case 2), F-18 FAPI-04 PET/CT (E, G, H, case 1; M, O, P, case 2 ) showed positive uptake in the nodular lesions (SUVmax 9.7, TBR 3.5 in Case 1; SUVmax 9.6, TBR 3.3 in Case 2).

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.

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.

Radiologists can designate nonmass lesions on breast ultrasound
By Amerigo Allegretto
Breast radiologists achieved moderate to substantial interreader agreement for classifying nonmass lesions on ultrasound.
December 9, 2025
Images depict a 50-year-old woman with a lesion detected during screening ultrasound. (A) Transverse and (B) longitudinal images reveal a 0.5-cm hypoechoic lesion (arrow) in the left breast. (C) Transverse color Doppler ultrasound image does not show an increase in vascularity. Two readers classified the lesion as a mass, whereas two others categorized it as a nonmass lesion, leading to its designation as a controversial nonmass lesion. Ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy and subsequent pathologic examination confirmed a nonproliferative breast change.
