The Food and Drug Administration has recalled 15 Philips Medical Systems Tomoscan SR4000 CT scanners because of a defect that shows up when an image is reversed in the systems databank, according to an FDA enforcement report. The defect in the system causes a patients image to be reversed left to right when a clinician retrieves it.
The problem was found during a routine FDA inspection several months ago, a Philips official said. He said the company hasnt received any complaints from customers.
There has to be a very specific set of circumstances for (the defect) to happen, the Philips official said. We have identified it as possible, and we are taking steps to correct the information.
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.
