The findings were published in Clinical Nuclear Medicine. Microglia are immune cells in the brain that are thought to have a role in MS disease progression but cannot be seen by a routine MRI. The team developed a technique called F18 PBR 06 PET imaging. One limitation to the study is the initial group was small.

iPET is AI-based software that denoises, sharpens organ boundaries, and improves resolution in PET and SPECT scans. Scans processed with the algorithm can also provide additional details by using an overlay of an MRI or CT image of the same region, the company said.

Reimbursement barriers Unfortunately, until recently, there were significant barriers to receiving amyloid PET imaging in some regions. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), for example, did not cover amyloid PET scans outside of clinical trials for Medicare beneficiaries and only covered one scan per patient’s lifetime.

Brain Tumor Spotted on PET Imaging An AI algorithm named “JuST_BrainPET” identified a glioblastoma in a patient that had been missed by physicians. This finding, reported in the Journal of Nuclear Medicine, underscores the potential of AI-based decision support in diagnostic and treatment planning.

MRI: This procedure offers a detailed look at the body’s soft tissues, including locations of tumors and if malignant mesothelioma has started to spread. PET Scan: These scans create 3D images that offer greater insight into whether a thickened pleura or peritoneum is malignant mesothelioma or a benign condition.

PET/CT imaging with a new radiotracer (F-18 PSMA-1007) is superior to MRI prior to surgery in men with intermediate-risk and high-risk prostate cancer, according to a study published on July 1 in JAMA Oncology. In this phase II clinical trial, the researchers sought to evaluate the approach further.

It's only been a few years since a dedicated track in nuclear medicine and molecular imaging was established at the meeting, and the practice already dominates it. AI studies in nuclear medicine appear to be picking up steam as well. The system detected significantly more amyloid plaque than conventional PET scans.
