SAN FRANCISCO — A novel, noninvasive method was able to accurately and noninvasively identify clear cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC,), and shows promise for differentiating indeterminant renal masses, say ...

ZIRCON-X was designed as a post-hoc analysis of imaging data collected in the ZIRCON trial to evaluate how the incorporation of 89 Zr-girentuximab PET imaging could influence clinical management ...

The PET tracer [ 89 Zr]Zr-girentuximab targets carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX), a hypoxia-inducible enzyme that is strongly expressed in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). CAIX expression is highly ...

Each year, over 2 million people visit U.S. emergency departments for suspected renal colic, which typically causes intense flank or abdominal pain due to kidney stones blocking the urinary tract. The ...

Renal imaging utilising positron emission tomography (PET) has emerged as a powerful method in the evaluation of kidney structure and function. By harnessing radiotracers that target specific renal ...

SAN FRANCISCO—For the first time, clinicians may have an imaging tool that can help distinguish clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC) from other kinds of renal masses. New data from a prospective ...

A new study led by investigators from the UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center has demonstrated a new, non-invasive imaging technique can accurately detect clear-cell renal cell carcinoma, ...

Incidental detection has increased with ubiquitous CT/MRI, inflating early-stage ‘small renal mass’ diagnoses and complicating interpretation of a ~5% rise in <50-year incidence. Obesity, hypertension ...

Treatment monitoring for solid tumors in general and for metastatic renal cancer in particular has been dominated by assessment of tumor burden via cross-sectional imaging. This poses a special ...

Scientists from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have developed a type of imaging probe that allows for earlier detection of acute kidney failure, a rapidly-developing ...

What began as a volunteer moment in a medical school ultrasound class turned into a life-changing discovery for Hannah Schultz — reshaping her future career path.
