ADAC Laboratories has a first customer for its recently approved Skylight nuclear medicine camera: Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.
Cedars-Sinai placed an order for the $1 million imaging device, along with a C-PET positron emission tomography system and three Forte gamma cameras, at the end of May. ADAC will begin delivering systems sometime in the company's fiscal year 2001, which begins in October.
The cameras will be installed in the hospital's S. Mark Taper Imaging Department. Nonprofit Cedars-Sinai's imaging department performs more than 264,000 examinations annually.
ADAC claims the gantry-free Skylight system is revolutionary in design. Its architecture allows gamma detectors to be mounted in a room structure, which removes limitations associated with the floor-based mechanical gantries of other nuclear medicine systems. ADAC received FDA approval to market the Skylight in May (SCAN 5/10/00).
Can CT-Based Deep Learning Bolster Prognostic Assessments of Ground-Glass Nodules?
June 19th 2025Emerging research shows that a multiple time-series deep learning model assessment of CT images provides 20 percent higher sensitivity than a delta radiomic model and 56 percent higher sensitivity than a clinical model for prognostic evaluation of ground-glass nodules.
