Universal IT translator tackles incompatibility
A Rosetta Stone-like scheme demonstrated at the third Nationwide Health Information Network Forum resolves IT incompatibility issues by translating information as it passes through the system.
A Rosetta Stone-like scheme demonstrated at the third Nationwide Health Information Network Forum resolves IT incompatibility issues by translating information as it passes through the system.
This universal translator from Northrop Grumman was one of the most potentially significant of the network prototypes shown at the January conference held in Washington, DC.
Compatibility between systems-user interface, system architecture, and functionality-can vary significantly. A translation facility, or information broker, that can resolve incompatibility issues would help achieve the goal of a nationwide health information network.
The defense giant was one of four high-profile companies at the forum demonstrating national health network prototypes, inching the country closer to the reality of nationwide health information exchange. Other firms presenting were IBM, CSC (Computer Sciences Corp.), and Accenture.
Northrop Grumman's solution connected national laboratory, pharmacy, and public health systems with three existing markets: regional health organizations in Cleveland and the Santa Cruz area of California and a health exchange in Mesa County, CO.
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.
