Forty years after physicist Allan Cormack and electrical engineer Godfrey Hounsfield jointly won a Nobel Prize for inventing computed tomography as we know it, the modality continues to generate new or improved uses and iterations. RBJ spoke with several trailblazers who are still plumbing the depths of CT applications.

Those include the company’s cost-conscious Focus 35C Detector and its Dual-Energy imaging application, which uses two filter materials to automatically switch between high- and low-energy exposures. 

Typically, primary care doctors must manually check the EHR to figure out whether a patient is eligible for a screening, but that step often gets lost during the course of a busy day.

FUJIFILM Medical Systems U.S.A., Inc. will be unveiling Synapse® 7X, a server-side viewer platform that extends across enterprise imaging areas, at RSNA 2019 in Chicago.

Vendor relationships can sometimes be mundane and ordinary, the kind that involve minimum communication and a lack of understanding of the visions and goals of each organization.

Presagen announced Oct. 30 the launch of its AI Open Projects platform, a tool that allows radiology practices worldwide to share images and help to build AI products that are “robust, scalable and unbiased.” 

Those involved said that such access is crucial for early cancer detection, and will hopefully help to avoid any unnecessary, duplicative testing in the future. 

Imaging informaticists can make a big impact on AI strategies, according to a new analysis published in Academic Radiology.
