PSMA PET/CT identifies 'atypical' metastases in prostate cancer patients
PET/CT scans with an experimental PSMA imaging agent can identify supraclavicular nodal metastasis in newly diagnosed prostate cancer patients.
March 21, 2025
F-18 PSMA-1007 PET/CT of a 70 year old with newly diagnosed prostate cancer: PSA 770 ng/ml; Gleason 5 + 5; International Society of Urological Pathology grade 5. The maximum intensity projection images, CT, and fused images show PSMA ligand-avid prostate primary with pelvic, retroperitoneal, and mediastinal nodal spread. Additionally, he had left supraclavicular nodal metastasis (arrows).

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.
