Boston Scientific debuts IVUS catheter

Emphasizing intuitive workflow and portability, the Universal Wireless Probe reportedly offers a cost-effective combination of phased and linear ultrasound imaging.

In this podcast episode, Dr. Shalom Kalnicki, from Montefiore and Albert Einstein College of Medicine, discusses the disparities minority patients face with cancer screenings and what can be done to increase access during the pandemic.

While high-resolution ultrasound offered nearly 10 percent higher specificity in the detection of upper extremity peripheral neuropathy, magnetic resonance neurography provided a nearly 23 percent higher sensitivity rate in a recent study.

Dr. Laurence Klotz discusses micro-ultrasound as a faster, less invasive, more cost-effective screening strategy compared to mpMRI in this podcast.

In a study involving assessment of over 1,000 thyroid nodules, researchers found the machine learning model led to substantial increases in sensitivity and specificity for estimating the risk of thyroid malignancy over traditional TI-RADS and guidelines from the American Thyroid Association.

Offering an array of AI-powered automation and image optimization, the new Elevate software is geared to maximizing workflow efficiencies for the EPIQ Elite and Affiniti ultrasound systems.
