Confirma and Penrad are showcasing at RSNA the integration between CADstream for breast MRI and the Penrad Mammography Information System.

The Penrad Mammography Information System (MIS) is reporting designed for radiologists and technologists to enhance the workflow processes of breast imaging, reportedly providing instantaneous interpretative reports and MQSA data with increased efficiency.

Planar Systems Inc. unveiled at RSNA its new family of high-resolution grayscale displays, the Planar Dome Zx series, including the Dome Z16, reportedly the world’s first 16-mexapixel, 30-inch single grayscale diagnostic imaging display.

Intended for medical applications requiring the finest precision and image quality, the new Dome Z16 delivers images on a single piece of true 10-bit high-resolution grayscale glass without the split-bezel of a standard dual monitor configuration.

Hologic features its Selenia Dimensions, including Selenia Breast tomosynthesis that may alleviate the challenges created by overlapping breast tissue in a traditional mammogram by presenting a slice-by-slice view of the breast.

The Philips 256-slice Brilliance iCT scanner is now commercially available, providing 8 centimeters of coverage, covering the entire heart in two scans and including a rotation speed of 0.27 seconds with 120 kw of power.

The Brilliance iCT scanner, now four times more powerful than a 64-slice CT, allows radiologists to produce high-quality images with exceptional acquisition speed, including complete coverage of the heart and brain, while incorporating Philips technology that has reduced radiation doses by up to 80 percent.

AVT, a new advanced visualization solution from Barco, reportedly answers the demand for instant access to 3D anywhere, anytime. With AVT, doctors can read volumetric studies throughout the hospital, in a remote office or even at home.

Siemens Medical Solutions has created two new MRI systems, the MAGNETOM Essenza, featuring 30 mT/m gradients, reportedly delivering excellent image quality for all clinical applications, and the MAGNETOM Verio, which combines image quality at 3T field strength and a 70-centimeter open bore that aims to offer exceptional patient comfort in one solution.

Siemens Medical Solutions' ACUSON S2000 ultrasound platform, the first system in Siemens' new S Class of ultrasound products, features capabilities for paradigm-shifting applications such as Acoustic Radiation Forced Impulse (ARFI)* imaging and is prepared to integrate Silicon Ultrasound technology.

The RadPro 40kW Digital Mobile X-Ray System integrated with a Canon CXDI-50G Portable Sensor, and is reportedly ideal for ER, OR and ICU environments.

Toshiba America Medical Systems Inc.'s dynamic volume computed tomography (CT) system, the Aquilion One, is an advanced diagnostic imaging system that can image an entire organ in a single rotation or over multiple rotations, showing real-time dynamic movement.

RamSoft and StructuRad announced that PowerServer PACS users will have MacroLive as an add-on macro reporting feature, available early 2008. The service reportedly will allow a user to access the StructuRad 7,000 macro library from within PowerServer PACS to quickly create and store a report.
