At the 2019 annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), Dec. 1-6 in Chicago, Carestream will feature its new Focus 35C digital radiography (DR) detector. The Focus 35C with Image Suite Software, which is investigational in the U.S. and not available for commercial sale, is offered as a budget-friendly way to tap the power of digital medical imaging, according to Carestream.

Experts in the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in radiology, from many of the world’s leading radiology, medical physics and imaging informatics groups, recently published an aspirational statement to guide the development of AI in radiology. The multi-society statement focuses on three major areas: data, algorithms and practice. Simultaneously published in the Journal of the American College of Radiology, Radiology, Insights into Imaging and the Canadian Association of Radiologists Journal, the paper also sought to address and incorporate feedback received from patients, radiologists, regulators and other stakeholders during a comment period that ended in April 2019.

Elevated left ventricular mass, known as left-ventricular hypertrophy, is a stronger predictor of coronary artery disease-related death and heart failure than coronary artery calcium score, according to a new study published in the journal Radiology.

Ubiquity is a great advantage of the cloud. Its pervasiveness allows data access from anywhere on the network. But just having the data available is not enough.

GE Healthcare and Premier Inc. have announced a collaboration to develop a model to bring a same-day breast cancer diagnosis and treatment model to the United States. A similar model has already proven effective at the Gustave Roussy Cancer Campus in France.

Laurel Bridge Software recently celebrated its 20th anniversary of helping healthcare providers and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) manage DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) information and medical imaging workflows. The company will highlight its solutions and services that enable healthcare organizations to ingest, access, move and manage medical imaging data at the 2019 Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) annual meeting, Dec. 1-6 in Chicago.

Densitas Inc. announced that its U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-cleared densitas densityai breast density assessment software will be available on the Nuance AI Marketplace. The company said the marketplace provides access to more than 70 percent of all radiologists across the largest network of connected healthcare facilities in the U.S.

Canon Medical Systems USA Inc. has received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k) clearance on its Advanced Intelligent Clear-IQ Engine (AiCE) for the Aquilion Precision computed tomography (CT) system. The clearance further expands access to Canon’s new deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) image reconstruction technology. This technology, now available on both the Aquilion Precision and Aquilion One/Genesis Edition premium CT systems, uses a deep learning algorithm to differentiate signal from noise so that it can suppress noise while enhancing signal, forging a new frontier for CT image reconstruction.

At the 2019 annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA 2019), Dec. 1-6 in Chicago, GE Healthcare will share its vision for the future of healthcare and the value it brings in delivering outcomes across the health ecosystem.

Selecting an AI Marketplace for Radiology: Key Considerations for Healthcare Providers

October 18, 2019 — As the nascent market for artificial intelligence (AI) in medical imaging develops, healthcare providers are faced with the question of how best to select, purchase and implement the rapidly expanding range of regulatory approved AI-enabled imaging applications and AI algorithms.
