16 PET/CT in oncology Advent of hybrid imaging Currently available data indicate that PET/CT is more sensitive and specific than either of its constituent imaging methods alone and probably more so than images obtained separately from PET and CT and viewed side by side. Published results on the use of PET/CT in oncology are still limited, but several well-designed studies have demonstrated the benefits of PET/CT, especially in staging of non small cell lung cancer, recurrent colorectal cancer, and malignant lymphoma 2008 Hôpitaux Universitaires de Genève

27 Whole-body PET-MRI Clinical workflow Whole body MRI (AC and localization) 2. Whole body PET 3 3. Additional diagnostic MR images

28 PET-MRI in Geneva Alpha & beta phase 62 patients had a PET-CT followed by a PET-MR Average time between studies was 85 ± 22 minutes ranging from 49 minutes to 120 minutes Most patients had a complementary diagnostic MRI Images were interpreted by a team of radiologists and nuclear medicine physicians PET Image quality was graded and compared between PET-CT and PET-MR SUV were measured and compared on both PET studies

30 PET-MRI in Geneva Resullts No significant difference in image quality and identification of abnormal lesions were found between the two PET scans of each case Images performed on the PET-MR were comparable to those acquired on the PET-CT scanner and often showed higher contrast with less background noise due to a well known FDG redistribution No significant artifacts from attenuation correction or from interference between the two scanners were observed Whole-body MRI sequence were often suboptimal for accurate anatomical localization and additional high resolution images of selected anatomical regions were used

31 PET-MRI in Geneva Resullts SUV measurements performed on two sequential PET studies (separated by 85 ± 22 minutes) showed a significant variation in biodistribution in different organs, but showed comparable results in tumor lesions PET-CT PET-MR

34 Clinical Studies

35 PET-MRI in clinical routine Potential clinical applications Pediatric oncology and epilepsy workup Oncology investigation that require already a diagnostic MRI in addition to PET-CT: Head & Neck cancer (pre and post-op) Prostate cancers Breast imaging New emerging clinical applications: Cardiac imaging (viability, ischemia?) Gynecological cancers Bone metastases (F 18 -NaF)
