Ziehm Imaging and BrainLAB have extended their development and marketing agreement for the integration of Ziehm’s mobile 3D C-arms and BrainLAB’s computer-assisted surgical systems (CAS).
Ziehm Imaging and BrainLAB have extended their development and marketing agreement for the integration of Ziehm's mobile 3D C-arms and BrainLAB's computer-assisted surgical systems (CAS). The new agreement extends the combination of CAS and C-arms from Europe to North America. The partnership goes back to 2002, when the two companies collaborated on the development of DICOM-based CAS on 2D fluoroscopic images. In 2007, the companies combined the Ziehm C-arm Vision2 Vario 3D with all mobile BrainLAB platforms for 3D intraoperative imaging in Europe. The Ziehm Vision2 Vario 3D allows surgeons to obtain a volumetric 3D data set and display sagittal, coronal, and axial views intraoperatively.
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.
