FEBRUARY 26, 2025

The new horizons of advanced imaging, especially in oncology, must increasingly consider not only diagnostic efficacy but also sustainability for patients, prize-winning researchers told ECR 2025 delegates. To mitigate these effects, low-energy imaging techniques should be prioritized without compromising diagnostic accuracy.

In the trial, 30 patients with recurrent disease or metastatic prostate cancer underwent baseline conventional imaging (CT, MRI, or bone scan) and whole-body Ga-68 PSMA-R2 PET/CT between 20 minutes and four hours after injection. The radiotracer was developed in 2019 for use in theranostics, the authors noted.

Technetium-99m (Tc-99m) methyl diphosphonate (MDP) bone scans are a potentially viable noninvasive option for diagnosing calciphylaxis, according to a team at the University of Massachusetts in Worcester, MA. The team assessed the potential diagnostic utility of bone scans in calciphylaxis based on a review of the literature.

Our Women's Center performs both screening and diagnostic mammograms. Ultrasound is a simple, safe, painless diagnostic procedure that bounces high-frequency sound waves off parts of the body and captures the returning “echoes” as images. There is no injection or radiation exposure associated with ultrasound.

A doctor will often use a diagnostic imaging test to check patients for signs of cancer. Here is a breakdown of how these methods of diagnostic imaging are used to detect and treat cancer: X-Ray X-Rays use electromagnetic waves to generate images of the inside of the body. Cancer screenings aim to detect cancer before symptoms appear.
