Study: Scanner Detects Smallest Cancers Better Than MRI
Naviscan PET Systems reported clinical data using the positron emission mammography (PEM) Flex Solo II scanner in breast cancer management.
An independent study of 136 patients compared the accuracy of PEM and MRI in pre-surgical planning for breast cancer patients.
PEM demonstrated 91 percent sensitivity in carcinoma detection compared with 83 percent for MRI and better sensitivity in cancers smaller than 5 millimeters, Naviscan said.
