making them visible on PET scans. Unlike conventional imaging, which provides only anatomical details, PSMA-PET offers functional imaging that reveals the cancer’s biological activity, which can ...

The seven best autoPET teams report in the journal Nature Machine Intelligence on how algorithms can detect tumor lesions in positron emission tomography (PET) and computed tomography (CT).

“Our guidelines recommend a low dose CT scan for people at risk for lung cancer and those age 50 to 80 who smoke or previously smoked at least one pack of cigarettes per day for 20 years or has ...

This could enable medics to identify sooner any decline in lung function. The scan method has enabled the team, led by researchers at Newcastle University, UK, to see how air moves in and out of the ...

Have a nodule (a small, potentially cancerous spot) on the lung that is usually 2 centimeters or less, “but there are always exceptions,” Gunn said. Undergo a PET scan (3D imaging ...

Testing may involve X-rays and chest CT scans. Smoking is the number one risk factor for lung cancer and accounts for about 70 per cent of cases. Risk may also be higher for people who have ...
