C-arm manufacturer OEC Medical of Salt Lake City has announced that it will equip Medtronic AneuRx's domestic and international clinical investigator sites with its OEC Series 9600 vascular mobile imaging systems. The clinical sites are investigating the AneuRx stent graft for the endovascular repair of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA).
OEC's Series 9600 will guide and position catheters and other devices relative to the procedure via digital fluoroscopy, and then will confirm procedural results prior to leaving the operating room with an immediate postprocedural subtraction angiogram, according to the companies.
The AneuRx stent graft, which allows physicians to treat AAA by deploying a stent graft through a catheter placed in the femoral artery, is being evaluated at clinical centers in the U.S. under an investigational device exemption from the Food and Drug Administration, according to the companies. The stent graft has received European approval and is in the early phase of European market introduction. Medtronic AneuRx is a Cupertino, CA-based subsidiary of Medtronic.
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.
