FDA clears Elscint's TransACT protocol
Elscint has received 510(k) clearance for its TransACT attenuation-correctiontechnique for the CardiaL 90° dual-head gamma camera. Clinicianshave been testing TransACT at Duke University Medical Center inDurham, NC, for its ability to correct
Elscint has received 510(k) clearance for its TransACT attenuation-correctiontechnique for the CardiaL 90° dual-head gamma camera. Clinicianshave been testing TransACT at Duke University Medical Center inDurham, NC, for its ability to correct inferior wall artifactscommon in myocardial imaging with thallium. The company is planningto adapt the technique for the adjustable-angle Varicam cameraas well.
Elscint also announced this month that it has received clearancefor its 2-tesla Prestige MRI scanner.
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.
