They found that F-18 FDG-PET/CT can be useful in breast cancer management, including initial staging, assessing neoadjuvant systemic treatment response, assessing treatment response in the metastatic setting, searching for loco-regional or metastatic recurrence, and re-staging after therapy, as well as radiation therapy planning.

X-ray and CT imaging are the go-to exams for trauma, Fritz conceded, but MRI is gaining ground as an effective modality for MSK trauma applications, in part because it does not expose patients to radiation and because it can image soft tissue well.

The balance of dose and image quality is even more important in pediatric medical imaging. Not only are children more radiosensitive than adults (the cancer risk per unit dose of ionizing radiation is higher), but children also have a longer expected lifetime, which puts them at greater risk of cancer following radiation exposure.(1)
