Siemens Medical Systems ultrasound group in June introduced upgrades to its Sonoline Sienna ultrasound system, expanding the units applications to include surgical and intensive care uses. The company unveiled five new transducers for its Sonoline Sienna 2.0 unit for surgery and intensive care environments. The transducers will allow physicians to use Sonoline Sienna for traditional open surgeries, ultrasound-guided biopsies and aspiration procedures, and laparoscopies.
The four interventional transducers7.5L50, 7.5L50-Q, Lb5-2 Biopsy Linear Array, and LAP 8-4are smaller and lighter and carry higher resolution than other transducers, and were developed for such indications as vascular imaging. Issaquah, WA-based Siemens developed its fifth transducer, C8-5, for neonatal intensive care.
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.
