The Detroit-based cancer institute achieved this landmark moment using the MRIdian A3i, which is the latest enhancement of the MRIdian system from ViewRay, Inc.

"The present study validated the feasibility of using MRI-based radiomics to identify a disease prone to missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis," experts involved in the study said.

Up to 47% of patients identified as being at high risk of lung cancer after CT screening drag their feet before seeking follow-up care.

Providers screening women with dense breasts and benign breast disease should consider individualized mammogram protocols for these patients, authors of the study suggested.

For 45% to 47% of patients who were deemed negative after conventional baseline scans, the use of the radiohybrid imaging agent resulted in at least one true positive PET finding

Because sacral insufficiency fractures do not always show a fracture line, they can be difficult to diagnose or even misdiagnosed as bone metastasis, which could result in additional treatments like radio-chemotherapy.

The study, which followed 195 patients recently diagnosed with multiple myeloma (MM), found that a negative PET/CT scan six months after diagnosis and induction therapy was significantly linked with improved survival.

Researchers have developed a prediction model that takes into account both imaging (post-NAC breast MRI) and clinical-pathologic features when forecasting patients' overall survival.
