Korea¹s Medison is introducing two new Windows NT 2000-based ultrasound systems at the RSNA meeting. The SonoAce 9900 is a new fully digital system for multispecialty applica-tions. The Voluson 730 is a premium high-end fully digital sys-tem that replaces the Voluson 530D.
The SonoAce 9900 incorporates digital multibeam signal processing that supports phased-sector, curved, and linear array transducers. Its transducer frequency range is from 1 to 12 MHz. The system includes m-mode and color, power, and pulsed and continuous-wave Doppler. It also includes a 3-D volume quantification method, Virtual Organ Computer Aided Analysis (VOCAL), to assess volume of anatomical structures and masses.
Voluson 730¹s digital platform offers the capability to enhance the tissue information display, an increased frame rate to define fast-moving structures, and the first real-time 4-D volume imaging for a significant increase in diagnostic information.
The Voluson 730 also offers 3-D volume quantification, advanced harmonic imaging, a quad digital beamformer, and online remote diagnostics. FDA clearance is pending.
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.
