You may not need to go to a hospital or clinic to see the benefits of digital radiography. You can appreciate some of them at your dinner table, according to U.K. researchers.
University of St. Andrews, Scotland, investigators tested a portable direct digital radiography system to assess skeletal deformities in Atlantic salmon. Using the Canon CXDI-31 system, they imaged 230 salmon one and a half times faster than if they had employed traditional x-ray technology, according to Xograph Imaging Systems, which supplied the DR equipment.
Great Britain produced 130,000 tons of farmed salmon in 2003. The x-ray study, involving a number of food-industry companies, is an attempt to ascertain positive anatomic qualities of the U.K. farmed salmon in order to compete with industry leaders such as Norway and Chile.
So the next time you eye that platter of broiled salmon, with its perfect pinkish hue, know that the fish may have undergone modern diagnostic imaging.
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.
