At the 2017 Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) Annual Meeting, Philips unveiled the IQon Elite Spectral CT, designed to provide clinicians with increased diagnostic certainty in every scan. The system, a new configuration of the company's first spectral detector-based computed tomography (CT) scanner, debuts a suite of features that will enhance the clinical benefits of the IQon platform to improve diagnostic confidence while enhancing the patient experience, and supporting the needs of emergency/trauma and oncology care.

Siemens Healthineers unveiled the new Mammomat Revelation premium mammography platform at the 2017 Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) Annual Meeting, Nov. 26-Dec. 1 in Chicago. Mammomat Revelation enables healthcare providers to expand precision medicine, improve clinical outcomes and increase patient satisfaction, according to the company. The system’s HD Breast Biopsy solution enables one-click targeting of suspicious areas with a +/- 1mm accuracy. The new integrated specimen imaging tool facilitates immediate control of the biopsy directly at the mammography system. Clinical workflow is improved by eliminating the need for a second imaging system and by reducing patient compression time. Mammomat Revelation also provides automated breast density measurements at the point of care. Additionally, it expands existing diagnostic options and provides patient access to functional breast imaging with contrast-enhanced mammography.

When I attend evening sessions at any of the medical conferences I go to throughout the year, I always look forward to meeting doctors who can talk about what they do on a daily basis to get a reality check on the true current state of healthcare. As an editor of a new technology magazine, you get a skewed sense when you only see work-in-progress and brand new FDA-cleared products. At the 2017 Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) meeting in late November, I attended a Toshiba evening event and met two radiologists from Nigeria.
