3D MRI technique helps plan treatment for pediatric heart conditions

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.

Clinicians, beware: CT diagnostic accuracy varies by adnexal lesion type

FAPI-SPECT reveals damage to myocardium after heart attack

Technetium-99m (Tc-99m) FAPI-SPECT shows promise as a tool for assessing cellular and structural changes in the myocardium after heart attack.

July 16, 2024

Emergency percutaneous coronary intervention images, Tc-99m MIBI perfusion images and Tc-99m FAPI images of STEMI patients. In STEMI patients, there is a localized yet inhomogeneous uptake of Tc-99m FAPI. Notably, the extent of Tc-99m FAPI uptake significantly surpasses the area of perfusion defects. Despite similarities in coronary artery lesions (culprit vessels identified as the left anterior descending artery in image A and the right coronary artery in image B, white arrows), and comparable myocardial perfusion impairment, patients with larger Tc-99m FAPI uptake areas exhibit ventricular remodeling.
