Several products have gained clearance for marketing in the U.S. Passing FDA muster were Vital Images' Vscore, a cardiac CT option featuring AutoGate for use on the company's Vitrea 2 workstation; Surgi-Vision's intravascular MRI coil; and Marconi's Infinion 1.5T MRI scanner. Vital Images' VScore with AutoGate determines the phase of the cardiac cycle at which each CT slice was recorded, automatically selecting the images of the heart least affected by cardiac motion without an ECG signal. Called Intercept, the disposable coil from Surgi-Vision is designed to be threaded into arteries or veins to detect early signs of blood vessel disease in conjunction with standard MRI scanners. Infinion 1.5T is a short-bore whole-body MRI system.

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.
