Ethicon widens distribution of biopsy product
The Lorad division of Hologic and Ethicon Endo-Surgery have struck a nonexclusive distribution agreement for Ethicon’s minimally invasive breast biopsy system, the Mammotome ST. Under terms of the agreement, which pertains only to the U.S., Hologic
The Lorad division of Hologic and Ethicon Endo-Surgery have struck a nonexclusive distribution agreement for Ethicon’s minimally invasive breast biopsy system, the Mammotome ST. Under terms of the agreement, which pertains only to the U.S., Hologic may offer the Mammotome ST for purchase with Lorad’s MultiCare and StereoLoc II stereotactic breast biopsy systems. The Mammotome ST is complementary to and compatible with Lorad’s two breast biopsy systems, which use digital imaging to pinpoint the location of suspicious lesions. The Mammotome ST can be used to obtain multiple tissue samples through a single, relatively small incision in the skin, using only local anesthesia. Open surgical biopsy removes a large section of tissue through a 1 to 3-inch incision, often under general anesthesia.
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.
