Evidence shows reductions in fluoroscopy time and radiation exposure of up to 90%
Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) device implantations are often associated with high radiation dose exposure due to long procedure and fluoroscopy times.
A first in human study recently conducted at the Heart Centre Leipzig (Germany) proved the benefits of using a novel sensor-based MediGuide™ Technology (St. Jude Medical Inc., St. Paul, MN) in combination with the Artis zee angiography system (Siemens Healthcare, Forchheim, Germany) for CRT implantations [1].
The study showed reductions fluoroscopy time and radiation exposure of up to 90% when compared to conventional (exclusively fluoroscopy-guided) CRT implantations. There were no negative consequences on procedural efficacy and no complications.
New CT and MRI Research Shows Link Between LR-M Lesions and Rapid Progression of Early-Stage HCC
January 2nd 2025Seventy percent of LR-M hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cases were associated with rapid growth in comparison to 12.5 percent of LR-4 HCCs and 28.5 percent of LR-4 HCCs, according to a new study.
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.
