Researchers propose guideline for EVALI diagnosis
Researchers have developed a preliminary guideline for the clinical management of cases of electronic cigarette, or vaping, product use-associated injury (EVALI). They discuss the details of their guide, which covers everything from diagnosis on chest imaging to follow-up care, in an article published online November 8 in Lancet.

DECT plus CT enhances evaluation of pulmonary lesions
Wednesday, December 4 | 3:00 p.m.-3:10 p.m. | SSM05-01 | Room N226Together, the combination of dual-energy CT (DECT) and conventional CT can differentiate primary lung cancer from lung metastases more effectively than either of the techniques alone, according to this study to be presented on Wednesday.

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.

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.

Phase I trial reveals the potential of a new PSMA-PET tracer

December 9, 2025
Scans in a 73-year-old man with biochemically recurrent prostate cancer (prostate-specific antigen level of 0.5 ng/mL) who underwent PET/CT with 9.4 mCi of F-18 piflufolastat and a second PET/CT examination with 8.1 mCi of copper 61-NODAGA (1,4,7-triazacyclononane,1-glutaric acid-4,7-acetic acid)–prostate-specific membrane antigen for imaging and therapy (Cu-61 PSMA I&T) 24 days apart, with no intervening therapy. Maximum intensity projection (MIP) images obtained (A) 1 hour after F-18 piflufolastat administration and (B) 1, (C) 2, and (D) 4 hours after Cu-61 PSMA I&T administration are shown. Physiologic uptake is seen in the lacrimal glands, salivary glands, liver, spleen, kidneys, ureters, and bladder. Pathologic uptake in pelvic nodal metastases is labeled with arrows. The F-18 piflufolastat PET/CT MIP image reveals two avid pelvic nodal metastases (arrows). Cu-61 PSMA I&T PET/CT scans demonstrate three avid pelvic nodal metastases on 1-hour and 2-hour images (arrows); five avid pelvic nodal metastases were suspected on the 4-hour image (arrows).
