Staging of prostate Cancer with ultra-fast PSMA-PET scans enhanced by AI.

Purpose: PSMA-PET is a reference standard examination for patients with prostate cancer, but even using recently introduced digital PET detectors image acquisition with standard field-of-view scanners is still in the range of 20 min. This may cause limited access to examination slots because of the growing demand for PSMA-PET. Ultra-fast PSMA-PET may enhance throughput but comes at the cost of poor image quality.

Article Synopsis
- - Hybrid imaging combines two or more imaging techniques to enhance image quality and information, particularly in cardiovascular applications.
- - This imaging can involve either merging images from separate scanners or using advanced hybrid machines like PET/CT and PET/MR.
- - The European associations aim to assess clinical scenarios that could benefit from this technology and suggest best practices for obtaining diagnostic images.
Purpose: Although ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) scintigraphy is a widely used imaging test, different options are possible for the acquisition and interpretation of the scan. The aim of this study was to assess current practices regarding the use and interpretation of lung scintigraphy in various clinical indications.
Patients And Methods: An online survey comprising 25 questions was sent to nuclear medicine departments in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, and United States between 2022 and 2023.
