'Tis the season for litigation. Mammography vendor Fischer Imaging has filed suit against Hologic and its distributors in France and Germany for the alleged infringement of a European patent relating to key features in Fischer's stereotactic breast biopsy systems. This is the second such action initiated by Fischer, which filed a suit against Hologic in November, alleging infringement of a U.S. patent covering the same technology.
PointDx filed a suit in late December alleging infringement of a U.S. patent by Voxar. The suit charges the Scottish 3D software developer with infringing virtual endoscopy patents. Sublicensing deals pertaining to the same patents have been struck with Vital Images and GE Medical Systems.
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.
