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.

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.
