COPRA is now SPARC! Standardized PSMA PET Analysis and Reporting Consensus: SPARC. Time to standardize the way we report PSMA PET. More to come!. #EAU24 @bjartell @ProfHadaschik @DrMHofman @stefanofanti4 @declangmurphy @drlouiseemmett @EANM_NucMed

First Lead-212 (Pb-212) in human images - quite remarkable that Alpha emission can be imaged with this quality. @DrDavePattison @AdvanCell_Iso #PSMA

Targeted alpha therapy with ²¹²Pb-DOTAMTATE in #NETcancer patients has shown great potential, exceeding the standard-of-care treatments currently available; Phase II study coming soon! https://t.co/GjxcH7yjcA @delpassand

Initial experience #COVID2019 in FDG PET-CT. PET-CT for onc. indications in asymptomatic pts (no cough/fever). CASE 1 (Classic/probable): Bilat (R>L) nodular GGO and consolidation. R apex SUVmax 8.7, anterobasal RLL SUVmax 7.0, LLL SUVmax 6.8, Rt hilar & mediastinal LNs (1/3).

As we all do our best to avoid the spread of COVID-19, we would like to respond to concerns regarding ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) lung scans and the risk inherent in the V/Q scan for spread of COVID-19 to patients and staff alike. https://t.co/suhciUGBLM

[UC Davis EXPLORER @TotalBodyPET]

We are getting some interesting results using ultra-short time-frames for PET imaging - we are starting to be able to directly capture cardiac motion and blood flow. Check out this video:

F18-anti-PDL1 followed by Zr-anti-PD1! How cool is this imaging!? @bmsnews #io360nyc #immunotherapy

[Nature Medicine @NatureMedicine]

Initial results from a first-in-human study show that PET imaging with PD-L1 antibodies outperforms immunohistochemistry- or RNA-sequencing-based biomarkers for prediction of clinical response to #immunotherapy: https://t.co/53bDxM3edf
