Next-generation PET/CT arrives
Siemens Medical Solutions will showcase a new biograph family of PET/CT scanners at the RSNA meeting. Features include a high-resolution PET option, image quality enhancement, a six-slice CT biograph companion to existing two- and 16-slice
Siemens Medical Solutions will showcase a new biograph family of PET/CT scanners at the RSNA meeting. Features include a high-resolution PET option, image quality enhancement, a six-slice CT biograph companion to existing two- and 16-slice configurations, and high-performance image processing on an enhanced version of the Siemens' Leonardo workstation. Most notable is the introduction of an advanced form of lutetium oxyorthosilicate, the detector material. This form of LSO, called HI-REZ, promises a 250% improvement in volumetric image resolution, according to the company. The improved workstation integrates more than 50 multimodality imaging applications, including CT applications addressing radiation therapy planning and lung analysis, in a single user interface.
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.
