Adding CsI-based dual-energy imaging doesn't improve lung nodule detection
(Radiology Review) New research suggests that cesium iodide (CsI) detector-based dual-exposure dual-energy imaging, when added to chest radiography, does not significantly improve the detection or classification of pulmonary nodules.

3-mm CT slices best for endovascular repair of AAA
(Radiology Review) Multidetector-row CT (MDCT) of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) treated with endovascular repair is best performed using 3-mm-thick images, according to a report in the December issue of the American Journal of Roentgenology. Researchers from Italy compared the sensitivity, specificity, and positive predictive values of different slice thicknesses for detecting endoleaks with MDCT.

Contrast-enhanced CT outperforms DSA for diagnosing abdominal bleeding
(Radiology Review) Contrast-enhanced multidetector-row CT (MDCT) is more sensitive than aortic branch-selective digital subtraction angiography (DSA) for detecting active abdominal bleeding, according to an in vitro study by U.K. researchers.

Combining T2-weighted MRI and DWI improves prostate cancer detection
(Radiology Review) Combined T2-weighted MRI and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) is significantly better than T2-weighted imaging alone for detecting peripheral zone prostate cancer, according to a report in the August issue of American Journal of Roentgenology.

I-123 MIBG–negative and F-18 MFBG–positive scans showing multiple lesions in 9-year-old male with relapsed high-risk, multiple-relapse neuroblastoma (stage IV disease) receiving chemoimmunotherapy. (A) I-123 MIBG uptake is seen in lower lumbar vertebrae (arrows). Positive uptake with F-18 MFBG PET (B; black arrows) in skull, spine, pelvic bones, femora, and left tibia (B and C; blue and white arrows). Bone marrow biopsy was positive for disease. Follow-up I-123 MIBG imaging (D; left) and spine MRI (D; right) performed six weeks later showed diffuse disease in skull and spine, corresponding to F-18 MFBG–avid sites.
