Duke Children's Hospital and Health Center has selected an IT system from Camtronics Medical Systems to manage pediatric cardiovascular images and information. Camtronics' Vericis will acquire and store images from the hospital's cardiac catheterization and echocardiography laboratories, including studies converted from existing modality-specific mini-PACS. The system will give physicians instant network access to integrated cardiovascular patient records throughout the hospital and provide secure Web access to patient images and reports via the Internet. Vericis will include EchoIMS, a comprehensive reporting system for pediatric echocardiography from VMI Medical, a subsidiary of Camtronics, which is itself a subsidiary of Analogic. Duke Children's is part of the Duke University Health System.
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.
