June 15, 2020 — Recently developed magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques used to more precisely target a small area in the brain linked to Parkinson's disease and essential tremor may lead to better outcomes without surgery and with less risk of negative effects, a new study led by UT Southwestern researchers suggests.

June 12, 2020 — RapidAI announced the acquisition of EndoVantage, developer of the Find, Track and Treat comprehensive cerebral aneurysm management platform. A major neurological condition, it is estimated that 1 in 50 people in the U.S. has an unruptured cerebral aneurysm, with one rupturing and resulting in a brain hemorrhage every 18 minutes. With this news, RapidAI continues to expand its scope, from ischemic stroke to hemorrhagic stroke and now aneurysm.  

June 11, 2020 — An algorithm that analyzes magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images and automatically detects small changes in knee joints over time could be used in the development of new treatments for arthritis.

June 10, 2020 — In a new study, Johns Hopkins researchers found that testing people for SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) too early in the course of infection is likely to result in a false negative test, even though they may eventually test positive for the virus.[1] This is important to understand since many hospitals are using these COVID tests to screen patients before imaging exams, diagnostic testing or procedures.

June 9, 2020 — Mirada Medical, a global leader in artificial intelligence (AI) software for the treatment of cancer, has launched an online version of its autocontouring software, DLCExpert, which is now available for cancer treatment centers to use free of charge until July 31, 2020.
