Flurpiridaz F 18 (FLYRCADO™) is an intravenous (IV) radioactive diagnostic drug being developed by GE Healthcare and Lantheus Medical Imaging for use in positron emission tomography (PET) myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) to detect coronary artery disease (CAD). In September 2024, flurpiridaz F 18 was approved in the USA for PET MPI under rest or stress (pharmacologic or exercise) in adult patients with known or suspected CAD to evaluate for myocardial ischemia and infarction. This article summarizes the milestones in the development of flurpiridaz F 18 leading to this first approval for use in PET MPI in adult patients to evaluate for myocardial ischemia and infarction.

Methods: Patients who underwent liver transplantation and intravenous CEUS at Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from June 25, 2020 to December 28, 2022 and were diagnosed with Ischemic-type biliary lesions (ITBLs) by Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) or Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) or Percutaneous Transhepatic Cholangiography (PTC) were prospectively enrolled. SonoLiver software was used to quantitatively analyze the contrast images, transplanted livers with normal biliary tracts as the control group.

Background: We aimed to assess impairments on health-related quality of life, and mental health resulting from Retinal artery occlusion (RAO) with monocular visual field loss and posterior circulation ischemic stroke (PCIS) with full or partial hemianopia using patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs).
Methods: In a prospective study, consecutive patients with acute RAO on fundoscopy and PCIS on imaging were recruited during their surveillance on a stroke unit over a period of 15 months. Baseline characteristics were determined from medical records and interviews.

Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is a leading cause of mortality and disability worldwide, with early and accurate diagnosis being critical for timely intervention and improved patient outcomes. This retrospective study aimed to assess the diagnostic performance of two advanced artificial intelligence (AI) models, Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer (ChatGPT-4o) and Claude 3.5 Sonnet, in identifying AIS from diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI).
