DOBI Medical Systems, maker of an optical breast scanning system, has received a $7 million investment from the Sterling Financial Investment Group of Boca Raton, FL.
The DOBI (digital optical breast imaging) system is designed for use in the screening and diagnosis of breast cancer. An infrared beam scans the breast as time-lapse photography attempts to detect the vascular changes that may indicate the presence of cancer. The system, which has not yet been cleared by the FDA, is in clinical tests. The underlying technology was developed in Moscow in the early '90s.
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.
