A radiologist confronts her own breast cancer
University of Pittsburgh radiologist Dr. Wendie Berg, PhD, was diagnosed with breast cancer in June 2014, after discovering that she has dense breast tissue and undergoing a breast MRI. In this article, Dr. Berg describes her personal experience and announces the launch of a new website, DenseBreast-info.org.

ISMRM: F-18 PSMA-1007 outperforms Ga-68 PSMA-11 at low PSA levels
Representative 3D displacement maps of one subject (female, 24 years old) derived from aMRI. The top row shows the coronal, sagittal, and axial slices of a structural aMRI magnitude image for morphological context, while the bottom row shows displacement fields overlaid; greater pulsatility during the cardiac cycle is seen in areas surrounding the brainstem and cerebrospinal filled regions.

ISMRM: DMI detects treatment response in patients with high-grade gliomas
By Will Morton
Deuterium is a stable, nontoxic isotope used to label glucose, which is then administered as an oral imaging agent.
May 13, 2026
Representative DMI data from a patient with a high-grade glioma. DMI ratio maps pre- and post-treatment show spatial metabolic changes. Deuterium spectra from the tumor and contralateral NABP demonstrate metabolic differences and therapeutic effects.
