Molecular Biosystems of San Diego has extended Mallinckrodt Medical's
rights to its FS069 ultrasound contrast agent to Europe, Russia,
Africa, and India. In exchange for the new rights, Mallinckrodt
of St. Louis will pay MBI fees of up to $12.9 million, plus 40%
of product sales for royalties and manufacturing. The companies
filed a premarket approval application for U.S. marketing of FS069,
a second-generation contrast agent, earlier this year. They plan
to file for European approval in early 1997.
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.
