Thermal Medical Imaging has initiated clinical trials of its TMI breast imaging system at Providence Hospital in Washington, DC. Providence joins Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center and Los Angeles County Hospital as sites performing clinical trials on the system (SCAN 11/12/97).
The clinical trials are exploring the efficacy of the TMI system as an adjunct to mammography and clinical examination. The TMI system employs an infrared sensing camera to record thermal images of heat emitted from the breast. The infrared camera is provided by Computerized Thermal Imaging, which owns 80% of Ogden, UT-based TMI.
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.
