An image-guided robot is being used successfully during open-skull neurosurgeries, according to the robot's manufacturer, Integrated Surgical Systems of Davis, CA. The robot, called NeuroMate, consists of a robotic arm that maps anatomical structures in the brain and positions surgical instruments during operations, according to the company. NeuroMate interfaces with existing presurgical planning stations and is guided by a proprietary patient-to-image registration technology developed by ISS. The system enables image registration to be conducted without a stereotactic head frame. The neurosurgeries were part of clinical trials under way at the Rothschild Foundation Hospital in Paris.
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.
