Wayne Forrest[email protected]MRIDCE-MRI provides biomarkers for endometrial cancerSunday, November 27 | 11:45 a.m.-11:55 a.m. | SSA11-07 | Room E353BIn this talk, researchers will discuss how dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) is an effective tool for detailing tumor microvasculature in endometrial cancer and how that information can help predict patient survival.November 2, 2016MRIMRI texture analysis aids patients with cervical cancerSunday, November 27 | 11:25 a.m.-11:35 a.m. | SSA11-05 | Room E353BTexture analysis of MRI scans offers a promising imaging biomarker for tumor heterogeneity and predicting tumor response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with cervical cancer, according to a group from Italy.November 2, 2016MRIMRI solves questions of adhesive capsulitisSunday, November 27 | 11:05 a.m.-11:15 a.m. | SSA15-03 | Room S406BMRI can diagnose adhesive capsulitis in a high proportion of clinically asymptomatic patients, according to this study being presented on the opening day of RSNA 2016.November 2, 2016MRIGadoxetate-enhanced MRI helps predict cancer survivalSunday, November 27 | 11:05 a.m.-11:15 a.m. | SSA07-03 | Room E353AResearchers have found that MRI with the contrast agent gadoxetate is an efficient way to enhance tumors and, thus, determine long-term survival in patients with colorectal liver metastases.November 2, 2016MRIDTI-MRI charts brain changes in young football playersDiffusion-tensor MRI (DTI-MRI) scans have shown significant brain changes in young football players after just one season of games and practice, even when they appear concussion-free, according to a new study published online October 24 in Radiology.October 23, 2016Molecular ImagingPET/MRI detects distant metastasis of breast cancerBreast cancer patients often face the additional risk of distant metastases, and the best way to find the presence of those abnormalities in the liver and bone is with PET/MRI, according to a study published in the October issue of Radiology.October 13, 2016MRIRat study finds no brain abnormalities from GBCAsAn evaluation of two linear gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) showed no signs of abnormalities in the brains of rats despite the presence of gadolinium. What's more, researchers found that gadolinium levels had decreased markedly 20 weeks after GBCA injection, according to results published online September 27 in Radiology.October 3, 2016Nuclear MedicineASTRO: PET predicts outcomes in vulvar cancer patientsPET scans performed three months after chemoradiation treatment for vulvar cancer can be valuable for predicting overall likelihood of survival as well as the risk of local and distant disease recurrence, according to a study presented on Monday at the American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) meeting in Boston.September 29, 2016Nuclear MedicineAuntMinnie.com Molecular Imaging InsiderSeptember 27, 2016Nuclear MedicineNovel PET tracer helps diagnose concussed patientsA new PET tracer, F-18 T807, has shown efficacy for diagnosing concussion-related brain degeneration for the first time in a live subject, according to a proof-of-concept study published online September 27 in Translational Psychiatry.September 27, 2016Previous PagePage 80 of 239Next PageTop StoriesMolecular ImagingAmyloid PET scans validated in racially diverse patientsChanges in care plans occurred in 59% of individuals after PET scans.Womens ImagingLimited access to PCPs thwarts mammography screening uptakeUltrasoundPOCUS rules out pulmonary congestion in kidney patientsEconomicsLow-value imaging services part of high Medicare costsDigital X-RayAI helps clinicians identify misplaced endotracheal tubes

SUVR images were corrected for partial volume effects and masked with the gray matter mask used for volume of interest delineation. Overall tau accumulation is comparable between the late-life depression (LLD, middle column) and non-depressed cognitively unimpaired comparison (HC, left column) groups, while abnormal tau accumulation, which is most pronounced in the mesial temporal lobe, can be seen in the mild cognitive impairment due to Alzheimer's disease group (right column).
