Artifact Reduction Drives Technology Advances with Updated Version of Echelon Synergy MRI System
Emerging technologies included with the 10th version of the 1.5T MRI platform include Synergy DLR Clear and Synergy Vision that are geared toward mitigating common challenges with artifacts.
AI Segmentation, Intraprostatic Tumor Volume and Metastases: What a New mpMRI Study Reveals
For patients who received radiotherapy for localized prostate cancer, total intraprostatic tumor volume derived from AI segmentation had a 10 percent higher AUC for predicting seven-year metastases in comparison to a risk model from the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN).
Al-powered quantitative assessment of coronary CT angiography (CCTA) revealed that non-calcified plaque volume was over 3.5 times higher in patients who had major adverse cardiovascular events, according to multicenter research presented at the Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics (TCT) conference.
New Study Assesses Long-Term Outcomes of PSMA PET Use in PCa Recurrence Cases
For patients with biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer, PSMA PET imaging may facilitate a 12.8 percent lower incidence of prostate cancer mortality in contrast to the combination of CT and bone scan, according to long-term outcome estimates from a new decision-analytic modeling study.
Can Diffusion MRI Predict Patient Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Breast Cancer?
A model emphasizing time-dependent diffusion MRI was 15 percent more effective than apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measurements at predicting pathologic complete response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy for women with breast cancer, according to new research.
