Computed radiography firm Fuji Medical Systems USA of Stamford,CT, will try to increase its lead in the modality with severalnew CR systems and enhancements that target new applications.FCR 9502 is a CR table designed as a replacement for conventionalx-ray radiography tables, according to Dave Armstrong, directorof Fuji's electronic imaging and equipment group. Fuji believesthe table can increase throughput and reduce costs while bringingx-ray into PACS networks.
FCR 9501 ES is a variation on Fuji's FCR 9501 chest unit. TheES model includes a new feature that enables clinicians to conductsingle-shot energy subtraction, which can eliminate either softtissue or bony structures on a CR image at the push of a button.
Other Fuji product introductions include a new DICOM gatewayas well as AC-3 CS, a new version of the vendor's AC-3 CR readerthat features an internal CR plate stacker. Fuji will also introduceseveral new film processors and laser imagers.
Finally, look for Fuji to emphasize recent OEM relationshipssigned with Siemens, Picker and GE (SCAN 9/27/95 and 8/30/95).
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.
