Philips and Siemens landed supply contracts from Premier Purchasing Partners for their full-line imaging modalities and related services. The three-year agreements, which take effect Sept. 1, could generate $2 billion in sales. Philips and Siemens will each offer Premier members CT and MR scanners, nuclear medicine equipment, including PET, radiography systems, ultrasound, and cardiac imaging technology. Siemens will also offer mammography. Premier negotiates group purchasing contracts for nearly 200 of the nation's leading hospital and healthcare systems, representing close to 1500 hospital facilities in 50 states and hundreds of other care sites.
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.
