Eastman Kodak has begun shipping its DryView 8600 laser imaging system for mammography, as well as its mammography laser imaging film. The unit can be used with digital devices for breast imagingwhether they are DICOM-compliant or notand was designed particularly for full-field digital systems, according to the firm. DryView 8600 carries an image resolution of 655 dpi, and can handle 8 x 10-inch films. Its Automatic Image Quality Control feature reduces variability. Rochester, NY-based Kodak expects healthcare facilities to use DryView 8600 with digital spot, digital stereotactic, and ultrasound imaging, as well as digital mammography devices when they appear on the market.
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.
