PET/MRI matches PET/CT with less radiation for children
German researchers have found promising evidence that PET/MRI is equivalent to PET/CT for lesion detection in pediatric cancer patients, while at the same time delivering just one-quarter of the radiation dose, according to a study published in the October issue of Radiology.

SNMMI: Mo-99 supply issues still shape nuclear medicine
The tenuous supply of molybdenum-99 (Mo-99) in recent years has resulted in a double-digit price increase at many nuclear medicine facilities across the U.S., as well as the canceling or rescheduling of appointments and fewer after-hours exams.

Use of SPECT MPI exercise stress continues to decline
The convenience of pharmacologic stress agents and an increase in patient mobility issues are contributing to a decades-long decline in the use of exercise stress for SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI), according to a study presented at the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology annual meeting.

JAMA: PET falls short in areas with widespread lung disease
A new study in the September 24 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association found that FDG-PET has sharply lower specificity for diagnosing lung cancer in geographic regions where infectious lung disease is common. The findings could affect how PET is used for following up CT lung screening studies.

ASNC: Should nuclear technologists read SPECT MPI scans?
BOSTON - Nuclear medicine technologists were nearly as accurate as cardiologists in reading stress-first SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) studies, according to research presented at the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology (ASNC) meeting. The study hints at a role for technologists in determining which patients could avoid the rest portion of the scans.
