Toshiba American Medical Systems of Tustin, CA, last month introduced the next generation of its mid-range ultrasound scanners at the American College of Cardiology conference in New Orleans. PowerVision 6000edp (expanded digital performance) allows users to select multifrequency tissue harmonics that best match the size of the patient and acoustic access, and incorporates technological advancements in Doppler performance and color maps for cardiac and vascular applications.
Other technologies available on the system include Toshibas version of harmonic imaging, called Flash Echo Imaging, and its latest version of Clear View Tissue Harmonics (CVTH). The company plans to provide the $30,000 PowerVision 6000edp as a free upgrade to facilities that already have PowerVision 6000 installed. Toshiba launched PowerVision 6000 last spring (SCAN 5/27/98).
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.
