Patients at risk for NSF might be safe with certain GBCAs
Could certain gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) be safe for patients undergoing an MRI scan whose stage 4 or 5 chronic kidney disease puts them at risk for nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF)? In some cases, the answer is yes, according to a meta-analysis published December 9 in JAMA: Internal Medicine.

Can FDG-PET/MRI replace biopsy in breast cancer cases?
Although FDG-PET/MRI shows promise for accurate staging of breast cancer, the modality still isn't as accurate as sentinel lymph node biopsy, according to a study presented last week at RSNA 2019 in Chicago.

PET and prejudice: Insurance firms' misconceptions
Healthcare insurance companies should value PET imaging and its cost-effective contributions to patient outcomes rather than view the modality as too expensive and unworthy of reimbursement, according to an editorial in the December issue of the Journal of Nuclear Medicine.

ABUS delivers better diagnostic performance
Both automated breast ultrasound (ABUS) and traditional handheld ultrasound can significantly improve breast cancer detection when used as an adjunct to mammography in women with dense breasts. But ABUS yields better diagnostic performance, according to research presented at RSNA 2019 in Chicago.

7-tesla MRI adds detail to cerebral microbleeds
CHICAGO - Researchers using 7-tesla MRI with susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) can discover more cerebral microbleeds in patients with diffuse axonal injury and better differentiate other anomalies than with 3-tesla SWI, according to a study presented Tuesday at RSNA 2019.

FDG-PET/CT within a year of heart valve surgery looks safe
CHICAGO - How soon after aortic prosthetic heart valve implantation can patients safely undergo FDG-PET/CT? A study presented Tuesday at the RSNA annual meeting found that such a scan within the first 12 months is quite feasible.

Question 4 from the Japan Diagnostic Radiology Board Examination 2024, representing a clinical scenario of a man in his 30s presented with transient dysphasia. The question asks to identify the most probable diagnosis from the following options: (a) glioblastoma, (b) hemangioblastoma, (c) metastatic brain tumor, (d) oligodendroglioma, and (e) primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL). The correct answer is (d) oligodendroglioma. The figure also includes a summary of responses from four large language models, along with their legitimacy scores rated by diagnostic radiologists.
