ATL Ultrasound continues to enjoy the fruits of its product development relationship with Medison of Korea. The Bothell, WA, company last week introduced a new color ob/gyn scanner, Ultramark 400C, that is the third system developed by the two companies since they signed their R&D joint venture last year.
Ultramark 400C builds on Ultramark 400, a digital grayscale system developed by Medison that ATL introduced last spring (SCAN 5/13/98). ATL believes the new scanner offers digital color imaging at a breakthrough price point for the ob/gyn segment. Color-flow ob/gyn imaging can help sonographers evaluate pelvic masses or ectopic pregnancies, and allows clinicians to more closely observe the hemodynamic status of a fetus. Meanwhile, Ultramark 400Cs grayscale capabilities support breast imaging, the company said.
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.
