Toronto-based Cedara Software has released the latest version of I-SoftView, integrating its proprietary form of 3D volume rendering, also known as Point and Click classification, into a PACS workstation. The implementation enables quick, automated separation of tissues with minimum user interaction. Predefined protocols are applied and an image rendered with a single mouse click. The key benefit to end users and its major point of differentiation from other products in the market is the "intelligence" provided by the algorithm, which allows fast and automated recognition of anatomical structures. Another enhancement, called single media archiving, acts as an off-line archive, enabling the healthcare facility to store patient data on a magnetic optical disk (MOD) or CD. With this, users also have the option of giving patients a copy of their studies.
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.
