Positron emission tomography/computed tomography is a hybrid nuclear medicine imaging technique that helps radiologists spot abnormal metabolic activity. PET/CT is commonly used to diagnose cancers, heart diseases and certain brain disorders, among other conditions.
Reducing certain treatments by around 25% and 50% still achieves promising PSA response rates, but reduces some of the unwanted side effects of therapy, like dry mouth.
That’s according to new PET imaging that shows the presence of activated T cells in the brain, spinal cord, gut and lung tissues of individuals who have recovered from COVID.
Experts recently uncovered strong associations between reports of memory loss from patients' peers/loved ones and the presence of tau tangles on imaging.

An AI-aided way has emerged to confidently select dementia patients who are likely to benefit from amyloid-PET imaging while appropriately de-selecting patients for whom the costly exam would probably be unhelpful.
HeartFlow is using SCCT 2024 to introduce the world to its updated Plaque Analysis platform. “Accurately diagnosing a patient’s risk for coronary artery disease is critical for determining the best treatment," Chief Medical Officer Campbell Rogers, MD, explained.
The new images were captured at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility using hierarchical phase-contrast tomography. One specialist called them "Google Earth for the human heart."
