PET/CT of prostate may improve biopsy guidance
At this year’s SNMMI, researchers discussed using PET/CT imaging and Ga-68 PSMA, which is a combination of a radioactive material and molecular compound, to accurately detect tumors while guiding a...

FDG-PET predicts breast cancer outcomes
FDG-PET is a considerably better predictor of treatment response and outcome than fluoride-PET for breast cancer patients with metastatic bone lesions, concluded researchers on Tuesday at the Society of Nuclear...
