Dutch evaluate strategies for harmonization of PET/CT studies

PET quantification based on standardized uptake values (SUV) can be hampered by variability in imaging procedures between institutes participating in multicenter FDG PET/CT trials. To address the issue, researchers in the Netherlands have evaluated harmonization strategies that reduce SUV variability.

Patient positioning has major impact on proton therapy

Proton therapy treatment is very expensive. And due to the scarcity of centers, access is limited. Therefore, efficient patient throughput is of paramount importance. Italian and Swiss researchers believe that remote positioning of patients may offer the potential of increasing patient throughput by up to 20%.

AI comes under scrutiny in Swedish prostate MRI study

An AI system trained in a screening population has lower specificity than radiologists using PI-RADS v2, but considerable care is vital, researchers from Gothenburg reported in European Radiology on 8 December.

Example case from test set with biparametric MRI data, reference segmentation, and output from AI system. The primary MRI assessment resulted in a PI-RADS 5 lesion in the left dorsal part of the peripheral zone and a PI-RADS 4 lesion in the right dorsal part of the peripheral zone (PSA of 11.6 μg/L). Targeted biopsies from both areas showed ISUP-grade 3. All images are from the same slice location, showing a part of both lesions. A T2-weighted (T2W) image. B Diffusion-weighted image with a b-value of 1,500 s/mm2. (C) Apparent diffusion coefficient map. (D) Reference segmentation with white areas representing tumor. (E) Softmax output from AI system. Inset in the lower left corner shows the detection map (cropped around the prostate) with red voxels representing softmax values of 0.99 and yellow voxels representing softmax values of 0.59. (F) T2W image with reference (D) and detection map (inset in E) overlayed, green represents areas in which both the reference and the AI output are positive (true positive voxels for AI), red only positive in reference (false-negative voxels for AI) and blue only segmented by AI (false-positive voxels for AI).
