FDA clears Siemens’ cardiac software
Siemens Medical Systems' Nuclear Medicine Group announced this month that the Food and Drug Administration has cleared the Hoffman Estates, IL, division's Emory Cardiac Toolbox, a cardiac image processing software package. Developed by Emory University
Siemens Medical Systems' Nuclear Medicine Group announced this month that the Food and Drug Administration has cleared the Hoffman Estates, IL, division's Emory Cardiac Toolbox, a cardiac image processing software package. Developed by Emory University Medical Center in Atlanta, the package can be used on Siemens' Icon computer systems.
Cardiac Toolbox streamlines nuclear cardiology procedures on Siemens gamma cameras, automatically locating the myocardial apex, base, and center surfaces of the heart. The program includes a 3-D image fusion technique that processes nuclear and angiography data and allows for computer display and 3-D rotation of heart images.
CT Study Reveals Key Indicators for Angiolymphatic Invasion in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
January 15th 2025In computed tomography (CT) scans for patients with solid non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) < 30 mm, emerging research suggests the lollipop sign is associated with a greater than fourfold likelihood of angiolymphatic invasion.
New CT and MRI Research Shows Link Between LR-M Lesions and Rapid Progression of Early-Stage HCC
January 2nd 2025Seventy percent of LR-M hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cases were associated with rapid growth in comparison to 12.5 percent of LR-4 HCCs and 28.5 percent of LR-4 HCCs, according to a new study.
The Reading Room: Racial and Ethnic Minorities, Cancer Screenings, and COVID-19
November 3rd 2020In this podcast episode, Dr. Shalom Kalnicki, from Montefiore and Albert Einstein College of Medicine, discusses the disparities minority patients face with cancer screenings and what can be done to increase access during the pandemic.
Can AI Facilitate Single-Phase CT Acquisition for COPD Diagnosis and Staging?
December 12th 2024The authors of a new study found that deep learning assessment of single-phase CT scans provides comparable within-one stage accuracies to multiphase CT for detecting and staging chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Study Shows Merits of CTA-Derived Quantitative Flow Ratio in Predicting MACE
December 11th 2024For patients with suspected or known coronary artery disease (CAD) without percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), researchers found that those with a normal CTA-derived quantitative flow ratio (CT-QFR) had a 22 percent higher MACE-free survival rate.
