CT hooks up with linear accelerator
Varian and GE Medical Systems have combined imaging and radiotherapy to create the EXaCT Targeting Cancer Care system. The new product, shown Nov. 4 to 8 at the annual meeting of the American Society for Therapeutic Radiation and Oncology (ASTRO) in San
Varian and GE Medical Systems have combined imaging and radiotherapy to create the EXaCT Targeting Cancer Care system. The new product, shown Nov. 4 to 8 at the annual meeting of the American Society for Therapeutic Radiation and Oncology (ASTRO) in San Francisco, features a GE HiSpeed CT scanner combined with Varian’s Clinac medical linear accelerator. Linking the two is a couch that pivots between them. The idea is to treat patients in the same position in which they were imaged, thereby reducing errors due to misalignment or changes in size, shape, or location of tumors and surrounding tissues.
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.
