PET/CT with C-11 acetate beats FDG for prostate cancer
By Wayne Forrest
Monday, November 30 | 11:20 a.m.-11:30 a.m. | SSC09-06 | Room S504CDIn this scientific session presentation, researchers from Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore will present preliminary data indicating that C-11 acetate PET/CT imaging has higher sensitivity than FDG imaging for detecting primary prostate cancer, local recurrence, and apparent nodal spread in both staging and restaging.

F-18 fluoride PET/CT may offer one-stop shop for bone metastases
By Wayne Forrest
Monday, November 30 | 11:10 a.m.-11:20 a.m. | SSC09-05 | Room S504CDResearchers from India will discuss a study that showed that PET/CT with F-18 fluoride beat other nuclear medicine techniques for detecting skeletal lesions, as well as for distinguishing between benign and malignant tumors, in patients at high risk for skeletal metastases.

Fluoride ion PET/CT beats FDG for metastatic spinal bone lesions
By Wayne Forrest
Sunday, November 29 | 11:45 a.m.-11:55 a.m. | SSA18-07 | Room S505ABResearchers from Stanford University will present a study that concludes that F-18 fluoride ion PET/CT may be helpful in predicting which metastatic lesions will be painful in the thoracolumbar spine. By doing so, the authors say it will allow for more effective treatment planning and could become an alternative to bone scanning with radiopharmaceuticals based on technetium-99m, which is in short supply.

PET may spot acute lung injury before other modalities
By Wayne Forrest
Sunday, November 29 | 11:45 a.m.-11:55 a.m. | SSA12-07 | Room S504CDAmong the preclinical studies at RSNA 2009, researchers at this scientific session presentation will cover preclinical research that indicates that FDG-PET may aid in the early diagnosis and therapeutic assessment of acute lung injury -- before it can be visualized on radiography.

PET/CT detects causes of paraneoplastic neurological syndromes
By Wayne Forrest
Sunday, November 29 | 11:15 a.m.-11:25 a.m. | SSA18-04 | Room S505ABEven with frequent conventional diagnostic procedures, the diagnosis of paraneoplastic neurological syndromes (PNS) can be challenging because the underlying tumor can go undetected. In this scientific session presentation, German researchers will discuss their use of PET/CT as a tool to discover suspected PNS.
