CTI Molecular Imaging reported fiscal second-quarter revenues of $82 million, up 48% compared with the $55.3 million posted in the same period last year. For the quarter (end-March 31), the Knoxville, TN-based vendor had net income of $4.5 million, compared with a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $12.8 million a year ago.

CTI's backlog stood at $176.4 million at the end of the quarter, up 65% from the same time last year. Chairman and CEO Terry Douglass said that the company’s quarterly results reflected continued growth in the PET market and the firm's overall business. He also cited particular strength in CTI's scanner business, as well as direct distribution efforts at CTI Services.

CTI reaffirmed prior guidance for fiscal 2003, with revenues of $355 million and fully diluted earnings per share of 60¢ to 64¢ per share.

PET visualizes acute graft vs. host disease

PET/CT images of F-18 AlF-NOTA-BCP137 in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and immunofluorescence analysis of patient tissues. (A) F-18 AlF-NOTA-BCP137 PET/CT images before and after immunotherapy for patient 1 and patient 2. (B) F-18 AlF-NOTA-BCP137 PET/CT and MR images of patient 3 (left panels) after one cycle of immunotherapy. PET images showed higher uptake by tumor and spleen, and PET result was evaluated as positive; therefore, the patient was considered to be responder to treatment and underwent surgical resection. Representative images of hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining and multiplex immunofluorescence of CD8 and CD137 (right panels) in HCC tumor and adjacent normal tissues of patient 3 after surgery. Nuclei were stained with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole. Primary tumors are indicated by white arrows, and increased thyroid uptake is indicated by red arrow in PET images.

Two cases of pathologically confirmed intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas in 68-year-old male patients. In both cases (A-H, case 1; I-P, case 2), CT scans (B, F, case 1; J, N, case 2) revealed intrahepatic bile duct dilation and suspected nodular lesions. While F-18 FDG PET/CT (A, C, D, case 1; I, K, L, case 2) failed to demonstrate abnormal tracer uptake (SUVmax 3.5, TBR 1.3 in Case 1; SUVmax 2.6, TBR 1.2 in Case 2), F-18 FAPI-04 PET/CT (E, G, H, case 1; M, O, P, case 2 ) showed positive uptake in the nodular lesions (SUVmax 9.7, TBR 3.5 in Case 1; SUVmax 9.6, TBR 3.3 in Case 2).
