The ImageGrid 200 establishes a new entry-level DICOM-standard storage category by combining an enterprise-class operating system with a compact casing and versatile tower design.

The LUMA Cervical Imaging System from Medispectra is intended for use along with colposcopy, a high-magnification evaluation of the cervix for women who have recently had an abnormal Pap test. The firm’s study showed that the new device can detect additional cancer precursors missed by colposcopy. Of the 50 cases of precancer detected in the study, colposcopy caught 41 cases of cervical precancer and LUMA caught an additional 9 cases of cervical precancer that colposcopy had missed.

Toshiba’s high-performance Excelart Vantage ZGV magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system received FDA clearance. The new Vantage ZGV is immediately available and offers new product sequences, enhanced image quality and features the Mach 8 processor, which increases reconstruction to 1,300 images per second for more powerful clinical applications.

MVision, from Siemens Medical Solutions, is a volumetric in-line target imaging solution and the natural next step in Image-Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT). Designed to work with Siemens’ linear accelerators, the system is the first commercial implementation of cone-beam technology utilizing a standard radiotherapy treatment beam. MVision makes it possible for the megavoltage (MV) source used for treatment to also create a 3-D image of the patient, enabling clinicians to “see inside” the patient at the most appropriate moment.

NeoGuide Systems has announced that it received FDA 510(k) clearance to market the NeoGuide Endoscopy System. The system enhances physician control of the colonoscope and eliminates looping, the principle reason why conventional colonoscopy procedures are painful, time consuming and difficult.

IntraSafe Medical received FDA clearance to market its SureFlow Safety Infusion Device, a multiport access device that has both check valves and an aspiration port that connects to any “off-line” Y-site.
The device can also be mounted for stable one-handed delivery of up to four drugs.

Bringing advanced ventilation technology into the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), Maquet’s SERVO-i Infant Release 3.0 with new Nasal CPAP, Y sensor measurement and other advanced features delivers the performance features of an adult ventilator fine-tuned for infants.

Providing noninvasive support for patients weighing between 0.5 and 10 kgs, the Nasal CPAP feature enhances oxygenation and recruits collapsed alveoli. It delivers fast response to pressure variations due to patient inhalation and exhalation.

Ampronix will feature its new Modalixx G202MP, GC8 and GC212HB at RSNA 2008. The series feature a complete set of inputs which cover a wide range of video parameters and connectivity options used for MRI, CT, endoscopy, radiographics, DR/CR, cath lab, mobile C-arm, portable X-ray DR/CR, PET and others.
