Allies promote MRI-guided treatment
Epix Medical and InSightec of Israel have allied to investigate the use of Epix's vascular MRI contrast agent, MS-325, to facilitate the treatment of tumors under MRI guidance. InSightec develops devices and software for MRI-guided high-intensity focused
Epix Medical and InSightec of Israel have allied to investigate the use of Epix's vascular MRI contrast agent, MS-325, to facilitate the treatment of tumors under MRI guidance. InSightec develops devices and software for MRI-guided high-intensity focused ultrasound, an investigational method of heating and destroying tumors or tissue such as uterine fibroids with millimeter precision. The collaboration will initially focus on preclinical studies leading to future use in the image-guided therapy program at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston. Epix and InSightec will share information on their technologies to optimize the use of contrast agents during interventional procedures.

Study Reaffirms Low Risk for csPCa with Biopsy Omission After Negative Prostate MRI
December 19th 2024In a new study involving nearly 600 biopsy-naïve men, researchers found that only 4 percent of those with negative prostate MRI had clinically significant prostate cancer after three years of active monitoring.
Study Examines Impact of Deep Learning on Fast MRI Protocols for Knee Pain
December 17th 2024Ten-minute and five-minute knee MRI exams with compressed sequences facilitated by deep learning offered nearly equivalent sensitivity and specificity as an 18-minute conventional MRI knee exam, according to research presented recently at the RSNA conference.
Can Radiomics Bolster Low-Dose CT Prognostic Assessment for High-Risk Lung Adenocarcinoma?
December 16th 2024A CT-based radiomic model offered over 10 percent higher specificity and positive predictive value for high-risk lung adenocarcinoma in comparison to a radiographic model, according to external validation testing in a recent study.
