PET/CT guides treatment in men with recurrent prostate cancer
F-18 fluciclovine and Ga-68 PSMA-11 PET/CT have similar benefits for sRT planning, in terms of improving cancer control without increased toxicity.
June 30, 2026
F-18 fluciclovine PET/CT images in a 59-year-old man with biochemical recurrence after prostatectomy (prostate-specific antigen level, 0.42 ng/mL; Gleason score, 5 + 4 = 9; T3BN1M0). (A) Coronal PET and (B) maximum intensity projection images show multiple retroperitoneal lymph nodes with abnormal radiotracer uptake (arrows). (C) Axial PET and (D) axial fused PET/CT images show the index lesion (arrow), measuring 13 × 10 mm, on the right precaval lymph node. The initial decision to offer radiation therapy to the prostate bed and pelvis was changed to a decision not to offer radiation therapy.

New PET tracer shows promise for guiding pancreatic cancer therapy
The radiotracer is designed to identify pancreatic tumors eligible for paired therapy with cancer-killing actinium-225 (Ac-225) NMT25.
June 19, 2026
Transaxial Zr-89 NMK89 PET/CT images 1, 24, 72, and 168 hours after injection showing increasing uptake in pancreatic tail adenocarcinoma. Maximum standard uptake value (SUV) in the pancreatic mass is 14 at 168 hours post-injection (crosshairs). PET SUV scale used for windowing was 0 to 10.

New immuno-PET tracer shows promise in prostate cancer
Compared to conventional imaging, Zr-89 DFO-YS5 PET identified additional lesions.
June 15, 2026
A 74-year-old patient with metastatic prostate cancer with a positive left iliac wing lesion (SUVmax of 35.02) seen on (A) Zr-89 DFO-YS5 PET maximum projection image (MIP) and (B) PET/CT (red arrows). The lesion was graded 5 on PET but was not visible on CT (D) or (D) technitium-99 MDP bone scan.

Bar graphs show comparison of volume CT dose index (CTDIvol) (A) achievable doses (50th percentile) and (B) diagnostic reference levels (75th percentile) between 2014 (see reference 4 by Kanal et al) and 2025 (present study) for 10 common CT examination types performed without contrast (w/o) and with contrast (w/). Across all 10 adult CT examination categories, CTDIvol achievable doses and diagnostic reference levels generally decreased from 2014 to 2025, with the largest reductions for torso examinations (chest; abdomen-pelvis; and combined chest, abdomen, and pelvis), intermediate reductions for neck and cervical spine, and minimal change for head examinations.

CT radiation doses have fallen sharply over past decade
The largest reductions appeared in chest examinations with contrast material, where diagnostic reference levels fell 31%.
Images in a 70-year-old asymptomatic woman with a prior excisional biopsy in the left breast yielding lobular carcinoma in situ 3 years earlier. Screening contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) was performed, which was considered a prevalence screen as the woman had no prior breast MRI in the past 3 years and no prior CEM. (A) Low-energy (26–30 kVp) mediolateral oblique (MLO) and (B) craniocaudal (CC) views show surgical clips but no abnormality. (C) Recombined MLO and (D) CC images show an enhancing mass in the medial left breast (arrows). Biopsy revealed invasive lobular carcinoma. Size was 0.2 cm; tumor grade II/III; negative lymph nodes; and estrogen receptor–positive, progesterone receptor–positive, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2–negative.

ACR rolls out PE-RADS for pulmonary embolism care
By Amerigo Allegretto
The framework outlines grading and suggestions for CT and MRI angiography interpretation.

Acute pulmonary embolism (PE) with right ventricle (RV) enlargement and clot-in-transit. PE chest axial CT angiography images demonstrate pulmonary embolus in the right pulmonary artery (white solid arrow), an enlarged RV (dotted arrow), and thrombus transiting through the right atrium (black arrows), PE-RADS 4/RV+/T+. The “4” refers to the PE‑RADS ordinal category for the most proximal clot location (central arteries). “RV+” indicates RV enlargement (RV to left ventricle ratio ≥ 1.0). “T+” indicates definitive thrombus identified in the right atrium and/or RV.

Tau PET tracer flags early Alzheimer risk in healthy older adults

Few studies have investigated how F-18 PI-2620 is associated with memory performance or AD-related biomarkers in cognitively unimpaired older adults.

F-18 PI-2620 average binding potential maps. Mean tracer binding (DVR) image from 165 older adults (A) and 13 young adults (B). Images are scaled from 1 to 1.8 for display purposes, but DVR values of less than 1 were frequently observed.
