Diasonics Vingmed Ultrasound is working with a Mississippi hospital to develop new capabilities for the company's EchoPAC echocardiography networking product. Diasonics Vingmed of Santa Clara, CA, on Oct. 17 announced its collaboration with North Mississippi Medical Center (NMMC) in Tupelo, MS.
EchoPAC enables clinicians to network echocardiography scanners together to gain the benefits of digital image management, and NMMC has six echo scanners linked with EchoPAC over a local area network (LAN). The hospital would like to extend the network to an affiliated clinic over a T1 wide area network (WAN) link, as well as add support for an SQL database for archiving studies.
NMMC is the largest of 10 EchoPAC installations in the U.S., according to a Diasonics Vingmed spokesperson. There are about 100 EchoPAC installations worldwide.

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.
