According to Raphael Bueno, MD, of Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, a new method that brings CT imaging into the operating room will enable surgeons to specifically isolate and remove small sub-centimeter lung nodules, leaving as much healthy tissue as possible.
His team presented their find...
Based on a new study, imaging of the coronary arteries with computed tomography (CT) angiography provides an accurate evaluation of arterial plaque and could have a significant effect on the management of diabetic patients who face a high risk of heart attacks and other adverse cardiovascular even...
Industry leader to present at China International Medical Equipment Fair, April 17-20.
BOSTON, Mass. and STOCKHOLM, Sweden – April 14, 2014 – At the 71st China International Medical Equipment Fair (CMEF) from April 17-20, ContextVision will demonstrate its US PLUSView Family and GOPView® Mammo2 ima...
According to a study recently published in the journal JAMA, there has been a steppe decrease since 2006 in the use of nuclear myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI; an imaging procedure used to determine areas of the heart with decreased blood flow), a decline that cannot be offered an explanation by...
Based on a new study published online in the journal Radiology, noninvasive imaging of carotid artery plaque with MRI can precisely predict future cardiovascular events like strokes and heart attacks in people without a history of cardiovascular disease.
For quite some time researchers have known...
According to a recent study, molecular breast imaging (MBI) has been discovered to detect cancer independently and regardless of breast tissue density. This ground-breaking data was collected from over 300 breast cancer patients who underwent the MBI/BSGI procedure. The same high rate of 95% of brea...
According to a study recently published in The Lancet Oncology, researchers from Stanford University School of Medicine in California tested a new whole-body diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique.
The imaging method uses ferumoxytol, an iron supplement, to significantly im...
Based on a new study recently published in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine, people who have suspected idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) without typical patterns on high resolution computed tomography scans could in the future be spared the considerable risks of lung biopsy and be given a strong ...
A recent study analysis of more than 220 US hospitals demonstrates wide variation in the use of noninvasive imaging in patients admitted to the emergency department with chest pain. Regardless of the variation, hospitals with high rates of imaging did not have lower MI readmission rates than those w...
A novel, wide-bore incorporated computed tomography (CT) gantry utilizing an original noncontact power transfer system, conjoined with new iterative reconstruction software called LISA (Low dose Imaging Software by Analogic), can produce high-quality images at up to 40% lower radiation dosage. An...
