Merge Technologies has released its next-generation MergePort, which integrates information from hospital and radiology information systems with diagnostic imaging technologies. MergePort acts as the interpreter between multiple HIS/RIS and PACS/imaging
Merge Technologies has released its next-generation MergePort, which integrates information from hospital and radiology information systems with diagnostic imaging technologies. MergePort acts as the interpreter between multiple HIS/RIS and PACS/imaging networks, or any other clinical system that utilizes HL7 communications. MergePort receives, converts, and dispatches HL7, DICOM, and custom-formatted messages, securely integrating healthcare applications, imaging modalities, PACS, image archives, and clinical repositories.
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.
