Publication date: Available online 16 August 2019Source: Diagnostic and Interventional ImagingAuthor(s): C. Mandoul, C. Verheyden, I. Millet, C. Orliac, E. Pages, I. Thomassin, P. TaourelAbstractDigital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) is a new imaging technology that addresses the limitation caused by overlapping structures in conventional two-dimensional digital mammography owing to the acquisition of a series of low-dose projection images. This unique technique provides a dual benefit to patients screened for breast cancer. First, DBT increases the cancer detection rate mostly by highlighting architectural distortions and all...

How to differentiate uterine leiomyosarcoma from leiomyoma with imaging
Publication date: Available online 16 August 2019Source: Diagnostic and Interventional ImagingAuthor(s): S. Sun, P.A. Bonaffini, S. Nougaret, L. Fournier, A. Dohan, J. Chong, J. Smith, H. Addley, C. ReinholdAbstractUterine leiomyomas, the most frequent benign myomatous tumors of the uterus, often cannot be distinguished from malignant uterine leiomyosarcomas using clinical criteria. Furthermore, imaging differentiation between both entities is frequently challenging due to their potential overlapping features. Because a suspected leiomyoma is often managed conservatively or with minimally invasive treatments, the misdiagno...

18F-FDG PET/CT in pancreatic adenocarcinoma: A role at initial imaging staging?
Publication date: Available online 8 August 2019Source: Diagnostic and Interventional ImagingAuthor(s): M. Wartski, A. SauvanetAbstractPancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma represents 90% of all pancreatic tumors. The only hope for prolonged survival in patients with this condition still remains surgery with complete R0 resection. Initial imaging has a pivotal role to identify patients who are eligible to curative surgery and those who may benefit of neoadjuvant chemotherapy. This review provides an analysis of the recent literature on 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG PET/CT) in pancr...

Assessment of proximal femur microarchitecture using ultra-high field MRI at 7 Tesla
ConclusionFemur bone microarchitecture metrics quantified using UHF MRI significantly correlated with biomechanical parameters. The multimodal assessment of ABMD and trabecular bone microarchitecture using UHF MRI provides more information about fracture risk of femoral bone and might be of interest for future investigations of patients with undetected osteoporosis.

Salvage cryoablation for local recurrence of prostatic cancer after curative therapy
ConclusionSalvage cryoablation of locally recurrent prostate cancer after curative treatment is feasible and safe when the half prostate is treated. It could delay initiation of androgen deprivation therapy in these patients. (Source: Diagnostic and Interventional Imaging)
