Medic Vision will present at RSNA 2016 its XR-29 solution.
Medic Vision Imaging Solutions will present at RSNA 2016 their FDA-cleared SafeCT-29.
SafeCT-29 is the first and only FDA-cleared third party XR-29 solution that helps meet the NEMA XR-29 (Smart Dose) standard, according to a release. Practices that meet the standard can avoid a CMS penalty, which will rise to 15% in 2017 for non-compliant scanners.
SafeCT-29 is CT-vendor neutral and offers full compliance with all of the XR-29 Dose Check and RDSR requirements, according to the release. The system is fully automatic and enables the technologist to maintain their existing workflow, the release said, it connects to the CT console, analyzes data in real time, and alerts the operator if the dose is too high. After the scan, SafeCT-29 generates Radiation Dose Structured Reports, as required by the XR-29 standard, the release said.
Medic Vision will be at booth 7938.
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.
Systematic Review: PET/MRI May be More Advantageous than PET/CT in Cancer Imaging
July 18th 2024While PET/MRI and PET/CT had comparable sensitivity for patient-level regional nodal metastases and lesion-level recurrence, the authors of a systematic review noted that PET/MRI had significantly higher accuracy in breast cancer and colorectal cancer staging.
