First Ever Investigational 18F-CD8 PET Radiopharmaceutical Aims to Predict and Monitor Early Response to Cancer Immunotherapies

Imaging Technology

The clinical trial will use this investigational radiopharmaceutical to help understand if patients have CD8+ T cells in their tumors and will, therefore, be more likely to respond to immune checkpoint inhibitors, the main class of immunotherapies currently approved for use.

Evidence grows for use of amyloid PET in China

AuntMinnie

Chinese clinicians have provided evidence in a “real-world study” that shows amyloid PET imaging is effective for diagnosing and managing patients with Alzheimer’s disease, according to a study published February 8 in Alzheimer’s and Dementia. The clinical utility of amyloid PET scans has been systematically studied in many other countries.
