The parent of Dutch x-ray developer Oldelft issued a warning last month that it expects to post a net loss for 1998. Delft Instruments said that restructuring charges were the main factor in the loss. Also, orders that were expected for the end of the year failed to materialize.
Delft expects to post an after-tax operating loss of $1.41 million for the year, compared with a profit of $7.1 million in 1997. After one-time gains and charges, Delft will post an after-tax net loss of $21.6 million. Delft recorded a one-time gain due to the sale of its Enraf-Nonius business, but that benefit was outweighed by restructuring costs.
Delft began reorganizing in October to return to profitability. The restructuring included job cuts and the sale of unprofitable businesses. Delft plans to keep its ultrasound activities as well as Oldelft, which will focus on digital products such as its Digidelca-C digital chest system. Oldelfts R&D, sales, and marketing activities were folded into those of Nucletron, which resulted in the loss of about 40 Oldelft jobs.
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.
