PET/MRI outshines PET/CT in lesion detection
By Wayne Forrest
Monday, November 26 | 11:00 a.m.-11:10 a.m. | SSC13-04 | Room S505ABPET/MRI showed superior lesion detectability compared to contrast-enhanced PET/CT in this study from King Fahad Specialist Hospital in Dammam, Saudi Arabia. Based on the results, researchers concluded that PET/MRI may be useful for abdominal lesion staging while sparing patients from contrast media.
