Brigham and Women’s Hospital has begun testing a cardiac workstation developed by Agfa. The workstation, which includes echocardiography and nuclear cardiology features, is designed for use with Agfa’s Impax Cardiology image and information management system. The goal of the system is to allow a one-stop shop for viewing images from multiple modalities. Ultimately, the system will be expanded to display chest radiographs, cardiac cath studies, and MRI.

Study Shows Enhanced Diagnosis of Coronary Artery Stenosis with Photon-Counting CTA
July 10th 2025In a new study comparing standard resolution and ultra-high resolution modes for patients undergoing coronary CTA with photon-counting detector CT, researchers found that segment-level sensitivity and accuracy rates for diagnosing coronary artery stenosis were consistently > 89.6 percent.
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.
