Hologic will occupy two booths at this year's RSNA meeting to showcase the company's changing identity and its growing array of imaging products.
One booth will feature only new technologies from each of the company's four divisions: Hologic Radiographic Systems, which focuses on direct and general radiography; Lorad, specializing in digital and analog breast imaging and minimally invasive breast biopsy systems; Fluoroscan, which provides C-arm imaging devices for orthopedics and pain management; and Hologic Bone Densitometry Systems.
A second booth will feature a mix of new technologies and product lines from the four divisions.
Hologic and its divisions will display:
Hologic was established in 1986 as a developer, manufacturer, and marketer of proprietary x-ray and ultrasound bone analyzer systems. It is shifting focus in the hope it will become a leading provider of comprehensive radiographic solutions. If recent moves are any indication, that goal may not be unrealistic.
Hologic acquired Fluoroscan Imaging Systems in 1996 and Direct Radiography Corp. (DRC) three years later. Earlier this year the company completed its hat trick by acquiring the U.S. assets of Trex Medical, including the Lorad, Continental, and Bennett x-ray product lines.
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.
