Abstract
Hybrid PET/MRI is highly valuable, having made significant strides in overcoming technical challenges and offering unique advantages such as reduced radiation, precise data coregistration, and motion correction. Growing evidence highlights the value of PET/MRI in broad clinical aspects, including inflammatory and oncological imaging in adults, pregnant women, and pediatrics, potentially surpassing PET/CT. This newly integrated solution may be preferred over PET/CT in many clinical conditions. However, further technological advancements are required to facilitate its broader adoption as a routine diagnostic modality.

Abstract
The radiopharmaceutical 2-[fluorine-18]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) has been dominantly used in positron emission tomography (PET) scans for over 20 years, and due to its vast utility its applications have expanded and are continuing to expand into oncology, neurology, cardiology, and infectious/inflammatory diseases. More recently, the addition of artificial intelligence (AI) has enhanced nuclear medicine diagnosis and imaging with FDG-PET, and new radiopharmaceuticals such as prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) and fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) have emerged. Nuclear medicine therapy using agents such as [177Lu]-dotatate surpasses conventional treatments in terms of efficacy and side effects. This article reviews recently established evidence of FDG and non-FDG drugs and anticipates the future trajectory of nuclear medicine.

Abstract
Normal marrow contains both hematopoietic/red and fatty/yellow marrow with a predictable pattern of conversion and skeletal distribution on MRI. Many variations in normal bone marrow signal and appearances are apparent and the reporting radiologist must differentiate these from other non-neoplastic, benign or neoplastic processes. The advent of chemical shift imaging has helped in characterising and differentiating more focal heterogeneous areas of red marrow from marrow infiltration. This review aims to cover the MRI appearances of normal marrow, its evolution with age, marrow reconversion, variations of normal marrow signal, causes of oedema-like marrow signal, and some common non-neoplastic entities, which may mimic marrow neoplasms.

Multi-parametric whole-body MRI evaluation discerns vital from non-vital multiple myeloma lesions as validated by 18F-FDG and 11C-methionine PET/CT. Eur J Radiol 2022; 155:110493. [PMID: 36027759 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejrad.2022.110493] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2021] [Revised: 08/04/2022] [Accepted: 08/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/03/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE We tested a novel multi-parametric (mp) whole body (WB)-MRI evaluation algorithm for medullary lesions in comparison to positron emission tomography (PET) radiotracers 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) and 11C-methionine (11C-MET). METHODS AND MATERIALS This retrospective single-center study included 44 MM patients, who received both 18F-FDG-PET and WB-MRI within ten days. MRI classified focal lesions as vital when showing 1) significant diffusion-restriction, 2) a fat fraction (FF) less than 20 % and 3) homogenous hypointensity on T2-weighted images. On a lesion-by-lesion level the findings were compared to 18F-FDG PET by using a 5-point scoring system (analogous to the Deauville score [DS]). In 24/44 (55 %) patients additional comparison to 11C-MET PET was available. RESULTS Among two radiologists, an excellent inter-observer reliability for mpWB-MRI in a total of 84 medullary lesions was observed (ICC = 1, k = 1, p <.01). 16/17 (94.1 %) MRI-classified vital lesions had a DS of 4 or 5 on either 18F-FDG-PET or 11C-MET-PET. MRI-rated non-vital lesions correlated with PET-based DS ≤ 3. When results of mpWB-MRI were compared to 18F-FDG, a fair inter-observer agreement was recorded (ICC = 0.52, k = 0.53, p <.01), while for 11C-MET, an excellent concordance rate was achieved (ICC = 0.81, k = 0.79, p <.01). CONCLUSION The proposed mpWB-MRI interpretation algorithm allowed to assess tumor activity of myeloma lesions with high inter-observer reproducibility. We observed a substantial concordance between the mpWB-MRI classification of lesions and PET assessment based on a semi-automatically calculated 5-point scoring system analogous to the Deauville scores.
