Silicon-based ultrasound generates images

Sensant has created the first clinical images using a novel ultrasound technology that uses silicon-based transducers. The images of the carotid artery, breast, and musculoskeletal system were presented for comparison with conventionally made images at the 10th Congress of the World Federation for Ultrasound in Medicine and Biology in Montreal June 1 to 4. The Montreal-based company generated images in collaboration with staff from Esaote and radiologists at the Valduce Hospital in Como, Italy. Sensant claims its images rival those produced by state-of-the-art ultrasound systems, which rely on piezoelectric crystal technology. The tiny silicon structures, known as capacitive microfabricated ultrasonic transducers, provide superior acoustic response, according to Sensant (SCAN 1/2/03).
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.
