More young women are developing breast cancer
Over the past eight decades, breast cancer incidence has risen in younger women, according to the findings of a study published on March 13 in JAMA Network Open. Researchers found breast cancer incidence in women younger than age 40 increased by 0.65% annually starting in 1935.

ABUS leads to more cancer detection, higher recall rates
Radiologists who double read automated breast ultrasound scans (ABUS) on their own or in combination with digital breast tomosynthesis had higher cancer detection rates -- but their recall rates were also higher, according to a recent study in the Journal of Breast Imaging.

Benefits of DBT for screening stand the test of time
The benefits of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) stand the test of time, according to a five-year retrospective study published on March 10 in Radiology. The study found DBT had better cancer detection and fewer false positives than digital mammography throughout multiple screening appointments.

Scientists use ultrasound to create blood-drawing robot
Ultrasound has been used for decades to help humans visualize the inside of the body. Now, it's helping machines do that, too. Scientists have created a robot that uses ultrasound imaging to draw blood from patients with difficult-to-access veins.

Ultrasound is a good 1st imaging choice for pneumonia

Handheld ultrasound edges out ABUS in patient surveys
Automated breast ultrasound (ABUS) can standardize image acquisition and decrease physician workload. But do patients actually like it? A recent study found that women slightly preferred handheld ultrasound to ABUS, but both modalities performed well in patient surveys.

New theranostics PET tracer shows promise
By Will Morton
A new gallium-68 (Ga-68) PET/CT radiotracer appears superior over F-18 FDG for detecting bone metastases.
April 17, 2025
Images of a 69-year-old man diagnosed with prostate cancer who had a history of endocrine therapy for two years. (a) The maximum intensity projection (MIP) image of F-18 FDG showed moderate radiotracer uptake in a thoracic vertebra. (e) The MIP image of Ga-68 DOTA-IBA demonstrated more lesions in the cervical vertebra and pelvis. (b) An osteoblastic lesion in the C3 vertebra right attachment (curved arrows) was negative on F-18 FDG (SUVmax = 2.0) and positive on Ga-68 DOTA-IBA (SUVmax = 8.7). (c) Another osteoblastic lesion in the T10 vertebra left side (arrowheads) was both positive on F-18 FDG (SUVmax = 5.2) and positive on Ga-68 DOTA-IBA (SUVmax = 35.0). (d) Osteoblastic lesions in bilateral ilium (dotted arrows and arrows) were negative on F-18 FDG (left: SUVmax = 1.4, right: SUVmax = 1.6) and positive on Ga-68 DOTA-IBA (left: SUVmax = 7.6, right: SUVmax = 8.7). Follow-up imaging three months later confirmed the presence of these bone metastases.

Ultrasound AC measures help detect liver steatosis
By Amerigo Allegretto
Attenuation coefficient (AC) measurements from ultrasound can help better detect hepatic steatosis and address interoperator agreement.
April 16, 2025
Ultrasound images depict a 56-year-old man with obesity (body mass index, 42) and steatosis (MRI-PDFF, 10.4%), who underwent ultrasound attenuation coefficient (AC) measurement due to participation in the present study. The unit displays color-coded confidence map (left) and AC map (on right) in side-by-side manner. The confidence map indicates quality of acquired AC signals and is set like traffic lights: green indicates good quality acquisition, yellow indicates warning, and red indicates low quality. Areas with low quality are left blank on the AC map. The image shows multiple circular ROIs placed at depths below the liver capsule of 2, 2.5, 3, and 4 cm. All ROIs are 3.5 cm in size. The confidence map threshold is set at 20%. AC measurements (in units of dB/cm/MHz) were extracted from all ROIs (excluding voxels without assigned color on the AC map) and decrease with greater ROI depth.
