GE HealthCare Receives FDA Clearance of a New Deep Learning Solution for Enhanced Image Quality in PET/CT, Advancing its Leadership Position in AI

Imaging Technology

We can’t treat what we don’t see, which is why we require precise image quality to help diagnose, plan treatment for, and monitor disease,” explains Prof. Medical imaging is a crucial tool for diagnosing disease, identifying a course of treatment, and determining whether therapy is successful for millions of patients around the world.

The rise of theranostics: Part 1 -- Gaining momentum

AuntMinnie

Theranostics pairs diagnostic biomarkers that can be visualized on nuclear medicine imaging with therapeutic agents that share a specific target in diseased cells or tissues. This theranostic therapy first demonstrated how using diagnostic imaging with a radioactive probe, gallium-68 (Ga-68 dotatate injection), could locate NETs on PET scans.
