Researchers test dual PET/MRI imaging agent in mice
A group in Germany has developed a new contrast agent that works with both PET and MRI.
August 6, 2024
Current PET/MRI imaging of healthy and damaged mouse kidneys using the dual contrast agent F-18 [Gd (FL1)]. The imaging provides consistent signals from both PET and MRI. In healthy kidneys, the center of the kidneys appears dark in the MRI image and very bright in the PET image, indicating normal excretion of the contrast agent. The onset of impaired function in one kidney is indicated by the accumulation of the contrast agent and its slow excretion. Precise mapping of MRI and PET data ensures detailed morphological and quantitative analysis of kidney impairment. Image and caption courtesy of IOCB Prague.

SPECT/CT predicts foot amputations in diabetics
By Will Morton
Technetium-99m white blood cell SPECT/CT imaging may be useful for identifying diabetic patients at risk of amputations due to foot infections.
April 24, 2024
Examples in two patients. (Top) Abnormal leukocyte accumulation was observed in the right 1st to 5th toes, with the radioactive lesions extending to the bone, indicating osteomyelitis (left panel, MIP image; right panel, axial SPECT/CT). Two spherical VOIs were drawn on diabetic foot infections (DFIs) and the highest SUVmax was 4.2 (higher than the cutoff of 1.1) Despite intensive treatment, the infection progressed, leading to the patient undergoing right below knee amputation 43 days after SPECT/CT. (Bottom) Mild focal abnormal leukocyte accumulation was detected in the right 3rd and 4th toes. The lesions were in contact with the bone, which raised a suspicion of osteomyelitis (left panel, MIP image; right panel, axial SPECT/CT). A circular VOI was drawn on DFIs and the SUVmax was 1.0 (lower than the cutoff of 1.1). After 10 weeks of antibiotic treatment, the infection was successfully resolved, and the foot was preserved.
