Optivision supplies MPEG video products to OlympusThe German division of Japanese firm Olympus Optical has selected streaming MPEG video products from Palo Alto, CA-based Optivision for use in a next-generation, network-centric medical imaging
The German division of Japanese firm Olympus Optical has selected streaming MPEG video products from Palo Alto, CA-based Optivision for use in a next-generation, network-centric medical imaging application. Olympus Germany Video Systems Integration (VSI) initiative is intended to provide widespread user access to live and archived medical images within hospitals and to remote medical service providers. The VSI project will also provide telemedicine, teleconferencing, and training capabilities using intranet-, LAN-, and WAN-based technologies. The VSI system comprises an analog video-switching network integrated with a hospitals IP-based computer network and is linked with Olympus endoscopic and medical imaging devices in various exam and treatment rooms.

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.
