Fuji Medical Systems USA of Stamford, CT, entered the market for dry laser printers at last month's Radiological Society of North America meeting with FM-DP L, a new printer designed for centralized radiology departments with heavy work-flow requirements. Fuji claims that the unit is the fastest laser printer on the market, with a throughput of 130 14 x 17-inch films an hour.
FM-DP L is based on Fuji's patented semiconductor laser exposure and thermal development processes. It also features a dual film drawer option that allows it to print different film sizes from different imaging modalities. Another highlight is its use of standard 110-volt power, making it easy to site.
The printer is Fuji's first dry laser offering and will join other dry printers in Fuji's arsenal that use nonlaser development processes. The product is to be available in the second quarter of 1999 and will compete with dry laser offerings from Eastman Kodak of Rochester, NY, and Sterling Diagnostic Imaging of Greenville, SC.
MRI-Based AI Radiomics Model Offers 'Robust' Prediction of Perineural Invasion in Prostate Cancer

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.
