Monitoring Cancer Treatments with Immuno-PET

The clinical use of full-length mAbs as imaging agents can be challenging, due to their long biological half-life and relatively slow tumor penetration, which may affect tumor-to-background contrast at early time points. In this webinar, Dr Gabriela Kramer-Marek will focus on HER-specific imaging radioconjugates that could provide unique information as cancer biomarkers, including quantification of receptor heterogeneity and early detection of changes in target expression in response to therapy.

			SPECT imaging combined with cardiac MRI could help improve ventricular tachycardia ablation Adding functional imaging to structural imaging of patients with ventricular tachycardia (VT) has the potential to improve current VT ablation strategies, according to new research published in the January issue of The Journal of Nuclear Medicine.

			Microwave Imaging for Breast Cancer: Procedure Microwave imaging represents a safe alternative to x-ray mammography for breast cancer screening.

	Researchers employ machine learning to uncover new insights into human brain's cellular architecture An inter-disciplinary research team led by scientists from the National University of Singapore has successfully employed machine learning to uncover new insights into the cellular architecture of the human brain.

	Myocardial T1 and T2 Mapping The cardiovascular system can be monitored and its functionality assessed with cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging. New techniques for CMR imaging have been developed in recent years. These include T1 and T2 image mapping, which are non-invasive imaging techniques that have been quickly integrated into normal CMR imaging procedures.

	New benchtop 3D x-ray microscope introduced by Bruker Bruker today announced the new SKYSCANTM 1273 benchtop 3D X-ray microscope based on micro-computed tomography (Micro-CT) technology. The SKYSCAN 1273 sets a new standard for non-destructive testing (NDT) with benchtop instruments, providing a performance level previously only achieved by floor standing systems.

	Study: Thousands of women get unnecessary mammograms before breast reduction surgery Each year, thousands of younger women with no known risk of breast cancer get mammograms before having breast reduction surgery.
