ESR Patient Advisory Group: a new strategy |
ESR Patient Advisory Group: a new strategy
The ESR Patient Advisory Group (ESR-PAG), is excited to launch a new strategy ‘ESR-PAG: a Strategy for 2019 and Beyond’ to meet growing patient expectations in the rapidly changing field of medical imaging. The deepened collaboration between the ESR and the patient community will further enhance patient-centeredness in medical imaging.

Metastatic melanoma | Musculoskeletal fascial system on MRI | CAD segmentation and diagnosis for breast PET/MRI | Interview with Elmar Kotter | Longer time window for thrombolysis after stroke? | T1 renal tumors: percutaneous ablation vs partial nephrectomy |
CT texture analysis features as biomarkers in metastatic melanoma
In this study, CT texture analysis is applied on the pretreatment examinations of patients with metastatic malignant melanoma treated with pembrolizumab. It suggests that texture analysis–derived tumor skewness may be a predictive biomarker of overall survival and progression-free survival in these patients. (Eur Radiol)

Musculoskeletal fascial system on MRI
This pictorial review illustrates the spectrum of MR imaging findings in traumatic, infectious and neoplastic disorders involving the fasciae of the musculoskeletal system, and presents recommendations to capture these abnormalities on MRI. (Insights Imaging)

CAD segmentation and diagnosis for breast PET/MRI
In this study, a data-driven machine learning approach for a computer-aided segmentation and diagnosis (CAD) system is proposed for the segmentation and classification of breast lesions captured by multiparametric PET/MRI. (Eur Radiol Exp)

AI and radiologists working together: An interview with Professor Elmar Kotter
The ESR spoke with Professor Elmar Kotter (Medical Center – University of Freiburg) to discuss the complementary relationship between radiologists and artificial intelligence (AI), the various AI-related challenges that have arisen in this field, and what this means for the future of radiology. Read this interview, and more, on the ESR’s AI blog here.

Longer time window for thrombolysis after stroke?
This multicenter, randomised, placebo-controlled trial shows that the use of intravenous thrombolysis between 4.5 and 9.0 hours after stroke onset - with ischemic, but not yet infarcted, brain tissue on perfusion imaging - resulted in a higher percentage of patients with no or only minor neurological deficits than those given the placebo. (N Engl J Med)

T1 renal tumors: percutaneous ablation vs partial nephrectomy
Percutaneous ablation and partial nephrectomy (PN) for the treatment of localised (cT1) renal masses are compared in terms of local recurrence, development of metastases and cancer-specific survival in a large cohort of patients and for a long follow-up. It concludes that clinically-relevant differences between PN and ablation are unlikely. Read more here. (Eur Urol)
