The pecking order in the U.S. echocardiography market remains unchanged, but Siemens and GE are gaining ground, according to a report by Klein Biomedical. Market leader Philips Medical Systems lost share last year to both Siemens and GE Medical. Siemens is closing in from its number two position; GE is ranked third. Siemens' gains are coming from the growing popularity of its Acuson Sequoia. Unit shipments of the company's flagship product increased more than 21%, according to Siemens, making Sequoia the best-selling ultrasound system in the U.S. for the sixth year in a row. The Klein report estimates that the U.S. market for ultrasound was essentially flat in 2002, with total revenues of $1.14 billion, managing a mere 0.3% percent increase over 2001.
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.
