Biomedicom, a 1998 spin-off from Silicon Graphics, has begun shipping a 3-D ultrasound imaging platform called SonoReal. The product is compatible with existing 2-D ultrasound systems and features a positional sensor, which attaches to a 2-D transducer using a simple clip-on device, enabling the physician or sonographer to acquire slices that can be reconstructed into 3-D volume. Proprietary software supports semiautomated image segmentation capability. By drawing a contour around a selected area, the SonoReal can define and surround a region or organ of interest, automatically removing obscuring tissues. The product debuted earlier this year at the annual meetings of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine.
MRI-Based AI Radiomics Model Offers 'Robust' Prediction of Perineural Invasion in Prostate Cancer
July 26th 2024A model that combines MRI-based deep learning radiomics and clinical factors demonstrated an 84.8 percent ROC AUC and a 92.6 percent precision-recall AUC for predicting perineural invasion in prostate cancer cases.
Breast MRI Study Examines Common Factors with False Negatives and False Positives
July 24th 2024The absence of ipsilateral breast hypervascularity is three times more likely to be associated with false-negative findings on breast MRI and non-mass enhancement lesions have a 4.5-fold likelihood of being linked to false-positive results, according to new research.
Can Polyenergetic Reconstruction Help Resolve Streak Artifacts in Photon Counting CT?
July 22nd 2024New research looking at photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) demonstrated significantly reduced variation and tracheal air density attenuation with polyenergetic reconstruction in contrast to monoenergetic reconstruction on chest CT.
