The first commercial installation of Siemens’ hybrid PET/CT scanner, called biograph, has been completed at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in Manhattan. A prototype of the biomolecular imager has been operating at the University of Pittsburgh for nearly three years, and the commercial model was introduced in November 2000. The system combines a dedicated positron camera, Ecat Exact HR+, and the Somatom Emotion multislice CT scanner. A spiral CT followed immediately by a PET scan provides comprehensive and accurate diagnostic information quickly and efficiently.
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.
