Image-guided therapy took a step forward May 20 with the introduction by Nomos of an ultrasound real-time imaging/positioning technology called ImageSync. Built into Nomos' new BAT SXi image-guided therapy technology, ImageSync provides a stream of ultrasound images that can be utilized in real-time to localize cancer targets prior to radiation therapy. Clinicians and therapists can dynamically move and align structure sets with the touch of a finger. The new technology is compatible with conventional radiotherapy as well as intensity-modulated radiation therapy.
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.
