Description
Claudia Neubauer and co-authors tested a new photon-counting scanner in 2026 for staging breast cancer through the chest and abdomen, with magnetic resonance imaging as the reference. Seventy-five women with 79 newly found cancers had both scans, with the new scan taken lying face down.
Readers rated cancer visibility and image quality as excellent. Tumour size matched the reference scan closely. Accuracy was good for tumour stage, spread pattern, and armpit nodes, and very high for chest-wall nodes. It was weaker for a non-invasive cancer form. Iodine uptake inside tumours differed by subtype, lowest on average in triple negative cancers. Larger confirmatory work is still needed.
