Cerianna: Seeing Deeper into Recurrent and Metastatic Breast Cancer
Sponsored by GE Healthcare
Speaker:
Gary Ulaner, MD, PhD, FACNM
James & Pamela Muzzy Endowed Chair in Molecular Imaging and Therapy, Hoag Family Cancer Institute
Professor of Radiology, University of Southern California
Session Objectives:
- Learn about the clinical implications of Estrogen Receptor discordance
- Understand the mechanism of Cerianna PET imaging
- Recognize the clinical applications of Cerianna PET imaging
- Identify patients who may benefit from Cerianna PET imaging
The heterogeneity of recurrent or metastatic breast cancer may create challenges in making clinical decisions. Cerianna™ (F18 fluoroestradiol) injection may help clinicians with clinical decisions by detecting whole-body ER+ lesions. Participating in this discussion will help you to learn about the clinical implications of ER discordance, learn about the mechanism of action of Cerianna and how it is unique from another PET/CT radiopharmaceuticals used for recurrent or metastatic breast cancer, realize the clinical applications of Cerianna, and identify its benefits through case study reviews.
