Assessments drive marketing moves for imaging centers
TAMPA, FL - Large corporations typically allocate more than 20% of annual budget expenditures on marketing their products and services. Imaging centers in the U.S. generally do not have the resources to commit such a high percentage of gross revenue on marketing. However, they still need to satisfy customer needs at the right price, the right place, and the right time.

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).

The number of all visible structures was fewer at an ambient light of 500 lux compared to both 25 and 75 lux. In addition, structure visibility was better with a gray wall color at all ambient light levels. Paired comparison between monitors showed better structure visibility on the high specification monitor for all condition.

Representative maximum-intensity projections of five patients (patients 3, 5, 7, 10, and 11) comparing Ga-68 NYM046 and F-18 FDG. Both tracers showed specific retention in bone and lymph node metastases (patients 10 and 11). Ga-68 NYM046 PET/CT outperformed F-18 FDG PET/CT in detecting primary tumors, lung metastases, and pleural metastases (patients 3, 5, 7, and 11).
