Scanis of Foster City, CA, and TRW's Healthcare Information Systems unit in San Bernardino, CA, have formalized their relationship in mammography computer-aided diagnosis (SCAN Special Report 12/97). The two companies announced this month that they have signed a three-year contract, worth more than $12 million, in which TRW will provide engineering services such as new product development, testing, and installation for the Mammex CAD system that Scanis is developing. TRW will also provide the training required to use and interpret results provided by Mammex, which highlights suspicious areas on digitized mammograms. The deal covers the U.S. and Europe.
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.
