Progress shows in MR-compatible leads
Two tests of technologies being developed for use in MR-compatible cardiac pacemakers have yielded positive results. Studies conducted at MR imaging centers in western New York showed a reduction in thermal heating during MR operations on a metal wire
Two tests of technologies being developed for use in MR-compatible cardiac pacemakers have yielded positive results. Studies conducted at MR imaging centers in western New York showed a reduction in thermal heating during MR operations on a metal wire similar to a pacing lead protected by technology engineered by Biophan Technologies of Rochester. The control sample heated over 22 degrees C in less than one minute, whereas the Biophan technology rose only about 1 degrees C in that time. A second test showed a reduction of 89% in the electrical energy induced in a metal object by the MR radio-frequency field after Biophan MRI safety technology was added to the sample.
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.
