Discuss GBCAs for cardiac MRI carry low allergic reaction risk
October 30, 2020 -- Using gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCAs) for cardiac MRI carries a risk of less than 1% for allergic reactions -- although macrocyclic GBCAs do appear to be safer than linear ones, according to a study published October 29 in Radiology: Cardiothoracic Imaging.

Discuss AI can identify sarcopenia in glioblastoma patients
October 30, 2020 -- An artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm can identify sarcopenia on routine brain MRI scans of patients with glioblastoma, enabling predictions of how long the patient might survive this aggressive cancer, researchers will report at next week's National Cancer Research Institute Virtual Showcase in the U.K.

Discuss CTA spots COVID-19 in stroke patients
October 29, 2020 -- Scanning acute ischemic stroke patients with CT angiography (CTA) helps determine if they have COVID-19 faster than waiting for results from a nasal swab, say researchers in a study published October 29 in Stroke. The findings add to the debate over the best time to use CT during COVID-19.

Discuss Use F-18 fluciclovine PET/MRI to stage prostate cancer
October 28, 2020 -- PET/MRI with the F-18 fluciclovine radiotracer shows promise for initial staging of high-risk prostate cancer and for evaluating response to androgen deprivation therapy, according to a pilot study published online October 14 in the American Journal of Roentgenology.

Discuss PSMA-PET reveals new salivary glands
October 28, 2020 -- Imaging with the use of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) has led to the discovery of a pair of salivary glands, found tucked away inside the skull where the nasal cavity and throat meet. The findings were published recently in Radiotherapy & Oncology.
