ComMedica in London is collaborating with Intel to create a means by which handheld products could bring healthcare data to the bedside and the operating room. The collaboration is based on ComMedica’s patient library information system (PiRiLiS) and Intel’s wireless LAN solutions for handhelds. The first step is to support the transfer of medical data on PiRiLiS to laptops, tablets, or PDAs such as Compaq iPaq, Fujitsu Tablets, and Palm M500/505. Radiological data might eventually be transmitted over the network, which can be extended through the Web to locations outside the institution. ComMedical claims its PiRiLiS technology can support the transfer of radiographs, ECGs, and other graphical and text data even from legacy hospital computer equipment.
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.
