BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:
[18F]-fluoroestradiol (FES) is a novel molecular imaging radiopharmaceutical that has demonstrated promise in the staging of ER-positive brain metastases. Our aim was to determine if hybrid [18F] FES brain PET/MRI is superior to conventional brain MRI alone for detecting estrogen receptor (ER)–positive brain and calvarial metastases, compare limited [18F] FES brain PET with vertex-to-below the knees [18F] FES PET results, and determine the impact of [18F] FES brain …
We scan the top radiology sources so you don’t have to.
From AI breakthroughs to imaging trends, we serve up real-time radiology insights.

Meta-Analysis Reveals Mixed Results on Adjunctive AI for Non-Contrast CT Detection of Ischemic Stroke
While pooled data from 38 studies showed markedly higher sensitivity rates for the use of adjunctive AI for ischemic stroke detection on non-contrast CT exams, researchers noted a high degree of bias and lack of external validation in many of the studies.
