FDG-PET/CT contributes to the diagnosis of tuberculosis-induced inflammation
By Wayne Forrest
Thursday, December 2 | 11:20 a.m.-11:30 a.m. | SSQ15-06 | Room S505ABGerman researchers have found that FDG-PET/CT may contribute to the diagnosis of tuberculosis-induced intraocular inflammation, especially in the case of latent and asymptomatic infection.

FDG-PET/CT aids evaluation of bladder cancer patients
By Wayne Forrest
Wednesday, December 1 | 3:30 p.m.-3:40 p.m. | SSM18-04 | Room S505ABFDG-PET/CT is helpful in accurately assessing disease and can provide significant prognostic information in patients with urothelial cancer. So concluded researchers from Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore in their study scheduled to be presented Wednesday afternoon at RSNA 2010.

F-18 NaF boosts sensitivity to detect malignancies with FDG-PET/CT
By Wayne Forrest
Wednesday, December 1 | 11:20 a.m.-11:30 a.m. | SSK13-06 | Room S505ABOn Wednesday morning, researchers from Stanford University in Stanford, CA, will show preliminary study results that "strongly suggest" dual-tracer PET/CT imaging with FDG and F-18 sodium fluoride (F-18 NaF) increases the sensitivity of detecting malignancy compared to FDG alone.

PET/CT tops CT alone for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma
By Wayne Forrest
Tuesday, November 30 | 10:30 a.m.-10:40 a.m. | SSG12-01 | Room S505ABPET/CT is superior to high-resolution CT alone, particularly regarding sensitivity, in cases of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, according to a study by researchers from Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City.

PEM shows potential for breast cancer surgical planning
By Kate Madden Yee
Monday, November 29 | 11:40 a.m.-11:50 a.m. | VM21-15 | Arie Crown TheaterIn this scientific session, Johns Hopkins researchers will present study results suggesting that positron emission mammography (PEM) is a helpful tool for breast cancer surgical planning in early-stage breast cancer.

How well can FDG-PET scans detect colorectal adenomas?
By Wayne Forrest
Monday, November 29 | 10:40 a.m.-10:50 a.m. | SSC13-02 | Room S505ABAlthough FDG-PET scans are sensitive in detecting malignancy and can detect colorectal polyps, Canadian researchers have found that the modality may not be foolproof in detecting lesions less than 10 mm in size.

BSGI improves breast cancer detection -- but biopsies may still be needed
By Kate Madden Yee
Monday, November 29 | 9:05 a.m.-9:15 a.m. | VM21-04 | Arie Crown TheaterBreast-specific gamma imaging (BSGI) improves the detection of breast cancer, but the modality doesn't do away with the need for biopsy when indicated by mammography or ultrasound, according to researchers from Weinstein Imaging Associates in Pittsburgh.

MBI increases breast cancer detection in dense tissue
By Kate Madden Yee
Monday, November 29 | 8:55 a.m.-9:05 a.m. | VM21-03 | Arie Crown TheaterIn this paper presentation, researchers from the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, will discuss how adding molecular breast imaging (MBI) to regular screening mammography for women with dense breasts increases cancer detection.

F-18 choline PET/CT outpaces whole-body MRI in recurrent prostate cancer
By Wayne Forrest
Sunday, November 28 | 12:05 p.m.-12:15 p.m. | SSA18-09 | Room S505ABPreliminary results of an Italian study show that while whole-body MRI did not match accuracy levels of F-18 choline PET/CT in detecting the local recurrence of prostate cancer, whole-body MRI is still a promising tool in restaging patients with the disease.

FDG-PET bests CT, MRI in detecting vasculitis and infection
By Wayne Forrest
Sunday, November 28 | 11:45 a.m.-11:55 a.m. | SSA18-07 | Room S505ABWith the help of FDG-PET, researchers at the University of Erlangen-Nürnberg in Germany are detecting vasculitis and vascular stent graft/prosthesis infection in patients for whom other cross-sectional imaging modalities are not as effective.
