USPSTF opens review of CT lung screening guidance
The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) has reopened for review its guidance on CT lung cancer screening. Should radiology be concerned that the group could soften its current support for the exam? Lung screening expert Dr. Ella Kazerooni offers her take on the topic.

CT colonography finds more cancer in seniors
Colorectal cancer screening with CT colonography (CTC) had a higher cancer detection rate in older individuals compared with younger people in a new study, published in the American Journal of Roentgenology. Researchers believe the findings could support a renewed push for Medicare reimbursement of CTC screening.

Postmortem CTA can help clarify cause of death
Postmortem CT is finding favor as an alternative to conventional autopsy alone. But Swiss researchers have added a new wrinkle -- postmortem CT angiography (CTA) -- which they found useful in detecting bone and vascular lesions during virtual autopsies, according to research published online on May 1 in Radiology.

MRI expands eligibility of stroke patients for tPA therapy
Determining the best course of therapy for stroke patients depends largely on when their stroke symptoms began. But what if they were asleep when their stroke started? Fortunately, a combination of MRI protocols could offer a possible solution, according to a report published April 25 in the Annals of Neurology.

3D knee model reveals ACL tear same in men, women
When researchers recreated an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture using 3D models based on MR scans of knees, they found no mechanistic differences in the injury between men and women, according to an article published online April 18 in the American Journal of Sports Medicine.

PET/CT images of F-18 AlF-NOTA-BCP137 in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and immunofluorescence analysis of patient tissues. (A) F-18 AlF-NOTA-BCP137 PET/CT images before and after immunotherapy for patient 1 and patient 2. (B) F-18 AlF-NOTA-BCP137 PET/CT and MR images of patient 3 (left panels) after one cycle of immunotherapy. PET images showed higher uptake by tumor and spleen, and PET result was evaluated as positive; therefore, the patient was considered to be responder to treatment and underwent surgical resection. Representative images of hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining and multiplex immunofluorescence of CD8 and CD137 (right panels) in HCC tumor and adjacent normal tissues of patient 3 after surgery. Nuclei were stained with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole. Primary tumors are indicated by white arrows, and increased thyroid uptake is indicated by red arrow in PET images.
