April 30, 2020 — Researchers at Aalto University and Turku PET Centre have developed a new method for simultaneous imaging brain activity from two people, allowing them to study social interaction.

The company .decimal at ASTRO showed a 3-D printing technology where radiation therapy (RT) bolus shields can be printed on demand, tailor made to fit a patient. This one is being printed at the expo and is for breast cancer RT. The company also makes customized machined plastic bolus, but offers the printing option for centers that have their own 3-D printers. A bolus is used to allow higher intensity radiation doses to be used in RT.

April 30, 2020 — An unprecedented collaboration among two medical societies and over 60 volunteer neuroradiologists has resulted in the generation of the largest public collection of expert-annotated brain hemorrhage computed tomography (CT) images, according to a report published in Radiology: Artificial Intelligence.

April 28, 2020 — According to a press statement released by the Society for Imaging Informatics in Medicine (SIIM), the organization has made the difficult, but necessary and responsible decision, to cancel its in-person 2020 Annual Meeting in Austin, TX.

April 28, 2020 – Konica Minolta Healthcare Americas released its Rede PACS, the company’s newest medical image management solution for specialty clinics, and Rede Mini PACS for ultrasound and X-ray image management are now available for purchase in the United States.

April 28, 2020 — Expanding patient pool suffering from cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and dental and orthopedic disorders is primarily driving the need for dual and multi-energy computed tomography (CT) techniques.

April 27, 2020 — Computed tomography (CT) scans for people at risk for lung cancer lead to earlier diagnoses and improve survival rates, but they can also lead to overtreatment when suspicious nodules turn out to be benign.

April 27, 2020 — Zegami, the Oxford University data visualization spin-out, has announced it has written to the health ministers of ten countries asking them to provide X-rays of COVID-19 infected lungs.

April 27, 2020 — In response to the need for critical care during the COVID-19 crisis, Carestream Health has increased production of its portable diagnostic imaging systems.

April 24, 2020 — Getting an X-ray at the dentist or the doctor is at best a little inconvenient and at worst a little risky, as radiation exposure has been linked to an increased risk of cancer. But researchers may have discovered a new way to generate precise X-ray images with a lower amount of exposure, thanks to an exciting set of materials that is generating a lot of interest.
