Power Standards Laboratory of Emeryville, CA, has released an electronic relay that promises to detect power line disturbances that can damage or disrupt MRI systems and other sensitive medical imaging equipment. The PQ1 Power Quality Relay is less than one-tenth the size (about the size of a human hand) and one-twentieth ($276) the cost of traditional power quality monitors. MRI field service engineers and hospital facility engineers can use it as a diagnostic tool, or it can be built into larger automated systems as part of a remote diagnostic system, according to the company. The relay responds within 500 nanoseconds to impulses and offers built-in standard depth-duration curves to respond to voltage sags and swells. The relay adapts to every standard voltage in the world.
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.
