Risk-based lung cancer screening mitigates healthcare disparities
Risk-based lung cancer screening using a model called the PLCOm2012-Update appears to mitigate racial and ethnic disparities and improve screening performance compared with a protocol based on the USPSTF 2021 criteria.

PET/CT metric improves outcome predictions in Pluvicto patients
By Will Morton
The inclusion of total tumor volume (TTV) produces prediction models with better discriminatory ability.
March 31, 2026
PSMA-PET images. (A) Representative examples illustrate the variability in the total tumor volume (TTV) among patients stratified by the number of metastatic lesions. (B) Case examples demonstrate TTV segmentation across a range of TTV values. Notably, as the tumor volume increased, a visible decrease in radiopharmaceutical uptake by normal organs is observed, particularly in the salivary glands, kidneys, and liver (denoted by brackets), a phenomenon known as the “sink effect.” SUV = standardized uptake value.
