ISG Technologies this week announced the formation of an alliance of companies to develop standards for the image-guided surgery market.
The Mississauga, Ontario, company said that the Surgical Navigation Network was intended to develop standards that will both help surgeons use instruments developed by different companies, and help image-guided surgery companies develop and sell systems. ISG unveiled the network at the International Congress of Neurosurgeons meeting in Amsterdam.
In other ISG news, the company received 510(k) clearance from the Food and Drug Administration for spinal applications of its Viewing Wand image-guided surgery workstation. ISG competitor Picker International also received 510(k) clearance for spinal use of its ViewPoint workstation last month.
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.
