Siemens places accelerators in Vietnam and U.K.
An advanced radiation therapy system built by Siemens Medical has begun operating at Vietnam's National Cancer Institute in Hanoi. Accompanying the Primus linear accelerator are the Lantis Oncology Management System and Simview Simulator. The Hanoi
An advanced radiation therapy system built by Siemens Medical has begun operating at Vietnam's National Cancer Institute in Hanoi. Accompanying the Primus linear accelerator are the Lantis Oncology Management System and Simview Simulator. The Hanoi National Cancer Institute is the central training ground for Vietnamese physicians and physicists.
Primus was also the first linear accelerator to be installed as part of the U.K.'s New Opportunities Fund, which eventually will cover the cost of more than 50 new and replacement linear accelerators in that country. Primus was installed at the Northern Centre for Cancer Treatment in Newcastle upon Tyne. More of the accelerators are scheduled for U.K. installation in spring and summer.
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.
