November 12, 2010 – A noninvasive imaging technique may help effectively diagnose prostate cancer at an early stage without ionizing radiation. According to a report at the Advances in Contrast Ultrasound – ICUS Bubble Conference, contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) could help diagnose the most common cancer afflicting American men.

The CXDI-70C is a new wireless, cassette-size digital radiography (DR) system. It eliminates the sensor cable for improved operability while delivering greatly enhanced image quality.

Aquarius iNtuition 3-D software enhances workflow with fully scalable client-server technology, delivering a wide range of visualization capabilities to any computer. At RSNA 2010, TeraRecon is moving iNtuition into the cloud as a browser-accessible, Internet-hosted subscription service.

November 10, 2010 – Tools to spot, diagnose and treat cancer or detect osteoporosis in women will be the focus of products highlighted by Hologic Inc. during the 2010 Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) meeting Nov. 28 through Dec. 2, 2010 in Chicago,

Breast Screening and Diagnostic Systems

November 10, 2010 – Several enhancements for an MRI video entertainment and functional MRI (fMRI) system will be on display at the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) meeting in Chicago.

November 10, 2010 – During RSNA 2010, GE Healthcare will announce the availability of the Discovery NM/CT 670, an advanced hybrid imaging platform designed to improve workflow, dose management and overall image quality.


Advancements in newer 64-slice computed tomography (CT) systems and the introduction of 256- and 320-slice systems are helping to significantly reduce exposure to ionizing radiation.

November 10, 2010 – The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has concluded that radiation over-exposure during computed tomography (CT) scans was due to user error, not the scanner manufacturers. The finding comes after the FDA investigated more than 300 reports of over-exposure during brain perfusion scans.

November 10, 2010 – New 4-D functional analytic advanced visualization software will be introduced at the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) meeting in Chicago. PhyZiodynamic, by Ziosoft, is based upon a supercomputing foundation and provides cutting-edge algorithms for functional imaging analysis across multiple dimensions.


The turn of the century has brought disruptive technological changes to the medical industry. 3-D/4-D advanced visualization offered cutting-edge technology that introduced a new dimension of glitz to the radiology department. No hospital purchased a 64-slice computed tomography (CT) scanner without a 3-D workstation included.
