Oncology Ultrasound

Cherenkov imaging uses special BeamSite cameras to capture radiation beam interaction with tissue, making radiation oncology treatments a visual process.

Clinical trial results show MRI as more accurate and less intrusive at diagnosis for men with a clinical suspicion of prostate cancer.

Men with intermediate-risk prostate cancer can be successfully treated with MRI-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound without experiencing incontinence or erectile dysfunction.

Here's what to expect this week on Diagnostic Imaging.

Seno’s Imagio® breast imaging system can help providers distinguish, in real-time, between benign and malignant breast lesions.

Pairing MR-guided high intensity focused ultrasound with the standard-of-care, external beam radiotherapy, can offer faster pain relief to patients.

Five-year contract furthers the companies’ existing partnership.

Popping microbubbles with ultrasound waves prompts greater radiation susceptibility, leading to lower tumor growth and better long-term patient outcomes.

Research indicates patients who undergo a single 28-Gy session experience similar outcomes to those who have four 12-Gy sessions, pointing to safer, faster treatment.

CEUS is a safer, less expensive option for diagnosing focal liver disease.

Treatment does not significantly change three-year disease-free survival rates.

States with expanded coverage saw an increase in cancer diagnosis for covered adults, as well as the overall population.

Portable, Low-field MRI; COVID-19 and Cardiac MRI; High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound; Coronary CTA Guidance; and Pediatric Advanced Imaging Utilization

Study shows targeted therapy can effectively control prostate cancer, helping men avoid surgery or radiation, as well as significant side effects.

The company has captured 510(k) clearance for artificial intelligence-based software that facilitates brain and prostate image interpretations.

Combining sound waves and a novel drug can reduce cancer cells by nearly 50 percent.

Evaluation of tumor features as effective as radiologists at distinguishing malignant thyroid nodules

Likelihood of malignancy did not differ between boys and girls.

Routine thyroid cancer screening among asymptomatic patients does not offer any benefit for patients.

Use of thyroid ultrasounds may identify cancer in low-risk patients and reduce unnecessary thyroid biopsies.

Ultrasound imaging of thyroid may identify cancers among low-risk patients; decrease rate of unnecessary thyroid biopsies.
