New Study Shows Impact of Tau-Positive PET in Risk Stratification for Dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease
For people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), new research suggests that a combination of amyloid-positive and tau-positive PET findings is linked to a nearly 70 percent risk of progressing to dementia in five years in comparison to an approximate 30 percent risk for those with amyloid β positive and tau-negative PET.

Can Contrast-Enhanced Mammography be a Viable Screening Alternative to Breast MRI?
While the addition of contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) to digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) led to over a 13 percent increase in false positive cases, researchers also noted over double the cancer yield per 1,000 women in comparison to DBT alone.
