The nuclear medicine division of Siemens Medical Systems in Hoffman Estates, IL, has received 510(k) clearance for its Profile attenuation correction device for the E.Cam variable-angle dual-head gamma camera. Profile uses a multiple-line array of radioactive sources, in which a series of stationary line sources are placed along an arc and positioned in such a way that the sources appear as a single-sheet source. This eliminates the complexity associated with scanning line sources, and avoids the cost, weight, and shielding requirements found in sheet sources, according to Siemens.
Can CT-Based Deep Learning Bolster Prognostic Assessments of Ground-Glass Nodules?
June 19th 2025Emerging research shows that a multiple time-series deep learning model assessment of CT images provides 20 percent higher sensitivity than a delta radiomic model and 56 percent higher sensitivity than a clinical model for prognostic evaluation of ground-glass nodules.
