Ultrasound developer Acuson of Mountain View, CA, has signed an agreement with TomTec Imaging Systems to incorporate the Munich, Germany-based company's 3-D software technology into Acuson's Sequoia and Aspen ultrasound platforms. The two companies displayed preliminary clinical images in Acuson's booth at last month's Radiological Society of North America meeting.
The software will be used for cardiac, obstetric, gynecological, and radiological applications and will include 3-D fetal assessment surface rendering for viewing the fetal face and limbs, as well as 3-D organ assessment volumetric rendering, which allows users to reconstruct and manipulate data sets.
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.
