Purpose: To collect and analyze radiation dose-related data as part of international cooperation; to define diagnostic reference levels (DRL) for 24 X-ray projections in plain radiography (DX) considering anatomical region, clinical task, and procedural technique; and to harmonize the exposure practice across country borders.

Methods: A multicenter study was performed in Austria, Germany, Italy, and Switzerland in 2022-23 to provide dose-related data. Healthcare facilities were asked to provide processed data from their dose management systems.

Article Synopsis
  • Lutetium 177 (Lu-PSMA-617) is a targeted therapy for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), and baseline Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT parameters may help determine treatment effectiveness.
  • The analysis used data from the VISION trial, where participants received either Lu-PSMA-617 plus standard care or standard care alone, focusing on how various PET parameters related to treatment outcomes like survival and response rates.
  • Results showed that higher whole-body tumor standardized uptake value (SUV) was linked to better treatment outcomes; for every 1-unit increase in SUV, the risk of radiographic progression and death decreased, indicating Lu-PS

Background: To analyze regional variations in T2 and T2* relaxation times in wrist joint cartilage and the triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) at 3 and 7 T and to compare values between field strengths.

Methods: Twenty-five healthy controls and 25 patients with chronic wrist pain were examined at 3 and 7 T on the same day using T2- and T2*-weighted sequences. Six different regions of interest (ROIs) were evaluated for cartilage and 3 ROIs were evaluated at the TFCC based on manual segmentation.

Spatial profiling of the microenvironment reveals low intratumoral heterogeneity and STK11-associated immune evasion in therapy-naïve lung adenocarcinomas.

Lung Cancer

June 2023

Institute of Pathology, University Hospital Heidelberg, Heidelberg, Germany; Translational Lung Research Center (TLRC) Heidelberg, German Center for Lung Research (DZL), Germany. Electronic address:

Objective: Intratumoral heterogeneity was found to be a significant factor causing resistance to lung cancer therapies, including immune checkpoint blockade. Lesser is known about spatial heterogeneity of the tumor microenvironment (TME) and its association with genetic properties of the tumor, which is of particular interest in the therapy-naïve setting.

Materials And Methods: We performed multi-region sampling (2-4 samples per tumor; total of 55 samples) from a cohort of 19 untreated stage IA-IIIB lung adenocarcinomas (n = 11 KRAS mutant, n = 1 ERBB2 mutant, n = 7 KRAS wildtype).
