Essex of Columbia, MD, has announced a one-year extension of its partnership with the University of Maryland School of Medicine to continue developing the ImSyn optoelectronic image processor for advanced MRI techniques.
By using laser optics with high-speed digital electronics, the company believes ImSyn could provide video-rate imaging without the use of supercomputers. Essex believes ImSyn could accelerate research and, eventually, clinical use of functional brain mapping, tumor ablation techniques for the breast and brain, and intraoperative image-guided surgery. Essex also plans to use ImSyn in microscopy and radar image processing applications.
New MRI Research Explores Links Between Waist-to-Hip Ratio and Memory in Aging
March 13th 2025Researchers found that a higher waist-to-hip ratio in midlife was associated with higher mean diffusivity in 26 percent of total white matter tracts in the cingulum as well as the superior and inferior longitudinal fasciculus.
Can Ultrasound-Based Radiomics Enhance Differentiation of HER2 Breast Cancer?
March 11th 2025Multicenter research revealed that a combined model of clinical factors and ultrasound-based radiomics exhibited greater than a 23 percent higher per patient-level accuracy rate for identifying HER2 breast cancer than a clinical model.
