The Uptime Service Center of Siemens Medical is growing up. The one-story building in Cary, NC, is adding two floors, a move that will triple its current 20,000 square feet. The service center is Siemens’ hub for servicing its imaging products in x-ray, ultrasound, CT, MRI, and mammography. Customers call in to the center to schedule service and technicians are dispatched. The center also offers a help desk and technical support engineers who can help solve problems remotely. The expansion, which should be completed in November, will accommodate up to 400 staff. The center originally housed just 123 workers.
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.
