November 29, 2009 - A new advanced visualization and decision support software upgrade is designed to improve management of CT stroke protocols and 3D or 2D viewing. It also provides electronic medical record (EMR) integration.

November 24, 2009 - Historically, clinicians have evaluated tissue stiffness – the physical property of tissue most affected by disease-through palpation. The diagnostic utility of this technique is now validated with the introduction of a new visual palpation device that uses low frequency sound waves in combination with MRI to measure tissue elasticity.

November 24, 2009 - There are many issues facing X-ray deployment in developing countries. Some of these hurdles involve poor infrastructure requiring renovations to existing facilities, a lack of skilled medical personnel, and inadequate storage of medical records and other data.

November 24, 2009 — A new upgrade to a RIS/PACS features critical test results management, document viewer scanning, drag and drop, and PDF conversion, and more.

The new version, PowerServer RIS/PACS 4.7 has added critical test results management to provide radiologists the ability to quickly flag critical studies and manage them through a worklist.

November 24, 2009 – Version 2.0 of a software application for the detailed analysis of lymph nodes allows the user to conduct side-by-side comparison and temporal tracking of images taken at different stages of lymph node development.

November 3, 2009 - A recently unveiled CT imaging platform for oncology is designed to increase accuracy in lesion localization, improve efficiency in image reconstruction and streamline workflow across patient marking and treatment stages.

November 24, 2009 - Radiation therapy treatment times can be reduced by up to 66 percent when using tomotherapy advanced radiation delivery techniques.

These findings, from the study "Dynamic Jaws and Dynamic Couch in Helical TomoTherapy," were published in the International Journal of Radiation Oncology * Biology * Physics (the Red Journal) on November 11, 2009.

November 24, 2009 - Seventy million dollars in grant money will go to community college training programs for health information technology professionals, and $10 million is designated to develop educational materials to support these programs.

November 24, 2009 – A new fully integrated mammography viewer optimizes productivity and is designed to eliminate the need for dedicated mammography workstations.

The PACS-integrated mammography module solution allows radiologists to access the entire patient record, optimize productivity and collaboration, and support quality management practices.

Biotronics3D is rolling out several new clinical applications at RSNA 2009, including the launch of a thin-client version of its flagship 3Dnet advanced visualization software. The company said its software helps increase workflow by enabling the enterprise to use 3D tools integrated with its PACS everywhere. Biotronics3D said its software easily integrates into any PACS.
