Questar to open centers in Kansas City
Questar Imaging of Tampa, FL, is planning to establish two open MRI facilities in the Kansas City, MO, area in a joint venture with Magnetic Imaging, a subsidiary of Health Midwest of Kansas City. The facilities will be part of Questar's OpenScan MRI
Questar Imaging of Tampa, FL, is planning to establish two open MRI facilities in the Kansas City, MO, area in a joint venture with Magnetic Imaging, a subsidiary of Health Midwest of Kansas City. The facilities will be part of Questar's OpenScan MRI network, which provides open MRI services to hospitals as an adjunct to existing hospital services (SCAN 9/25/96). The centers are scheduled to be in operation by the middle of this year.
Questar has established seven OpenScan centers in the U.S., with three more (including the Kansas City sites) scheduled to go online this year. Questar is also in negotiations with partners to establish another seven OpenScan sites.

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.
