UC Davis Health has implemented two groundbreaking imaging technologies to improve lung cancer care. The first technology, a new mobile 3D CT imaging system, enhances early detection of lung cancer by enabling more precise biopsies. This system, used in conjunction with a robotic-assisted bronchoscopy tool, allows for accurate real-time imaging, reducing procedure times and increasing safety. The results have shown a significant increase in early-stage lung cancer diagnoses, which are more treatable.
The second technology involves advanced imaging to monitor the effectiveness of lung cancer treatments. Utilizing the novel EXPLORER PET scanner, researchers can now better understand the lung’s unique blood supply, which helps in evaluating how lung tumors respond to treatments. This technology promises to refine therapeutic strategies, particularly in how treatments such as immunotherapy are applied.
These innovations not only offer hope for early detection but also provide critical insights into treatment efficacy, potentially transforming lung cancer management and outcomes.
