Quantitative 99mTc-PYP SPECT/CT at 90 minutes improves diagnostic stratification in transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis

 Published on 30/07/2026 |  Original article (Full-text)  | Tina Nazerani-Zemann et al. | European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (2026).

Scintigraphy using 99mTc-labeled bone-seeking tracers is a cornerstone in the non-invasive diagnosis of transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM). However, planar imaging alone, particularly in patients with Perugini score 1, often lacks diagnostic specificity. This study evaluates the incremental...

Automated ultrasound with AI for osteophyte grading in hand osteoarthritis: comparison with expert rheumatologist assessment

 Published on 23/07/2026 |  Original article (Full-text)  | Frederiksen, Bill Aplin et al. | BMC Rheumatology. Volume 10(1).

The of this study was to characterise the agreement of the CE-certified automated robotic ultrasound system ARTHUR v.2.0, combined with the AI model DIANA v.2.0, for grading osteophytes in hand osteoarthritis (OA), using expert rheumatologist assessment as the reference standard. Methods: Thirty patients...
