MRI systems are so powerful and require so much infrastructure that, until recently, they required their own dedicated rooms.
A portable magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system or Point of Care (POC) MRI machine is a compact mobile device designed for imaging patients outside of traditional MRI k...
Medical imaging examination is a “fierce eye” for insight into the human body. But when it comes to X-rays, CT, MRI, ultrasound, and nuclear medicine, many people will have questions: Will there be radiation during the examination? Will it cause any harm to the body? Pregnant women, i...
A virtual meeting held by the International Atomic Energy Agency this week discussed progress made in reducing radiation-related risks while maintaining benefits for patients who require frequent medical imaging. Participants discussed the impact and concrete actions needed to strengthen patient ...
In the previous article, we discussed the considerations related to getting a CT scan, and this article will continue to discuss other issues related to getting a CT scan to help you get the most comprehensive information.
When will we know the results of the CT scan?
It usually takes about 24 ...
A CT (computed tomography) scan is an imaging test that helps health care providers detect disease and injury. It uses a series of X-rays and computers to create detailed images of bone and soft tissue. CT scans are painless and non-invasive. You may go to the hospital or imaging center for a CT ...
Recently, the new interventional operating room of Zhucheng Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital has been officially put into operation. A large digital angiography machine (DSA) has been added – the latest generation of bidirectional moving seven-axis floor-standing ARTIS one X angiograph...
Ulrich Medical, a German medical device manufacturer, and Bracco Imaging have formed a strategic cooperation agreement. This agreement will see Bracco distributing an MRI contrast media injector in the U.S. as soon as it becomes commercially available.
With the finalization of the distribution ag...
According to a recent meta-analysis, positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) and multi-parameter magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) provide similar detection rates in diagnosing prostate cancer (PCa) recurrence.
The researchers found that prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA...
The Honor-C1101,(CT single contrast media injector)&Honor-C-2101 (CT double head contrast media injector)are LnkMed‘s leading CT contrast media injectors. The latest phase of development for the Honor C1101 and Honor C2101 prioritizes user needs, aiming to enhance the usability of the C...
“Contrast media are critical to the added value of imaging technology,” Dushyant Sahani, MD, noted in a recent video interview series with Joseph Cavallo, MD, MBA.
For computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography computed tomography (PE...
To provide a comprehensive insight into the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in radiology, five leading radiology societies have come together to publish a joint paper addressing the potential challenges and ethical issues associated with this new technology.
The joint statement was is...
The significance of life-saving medical imaging in expanding global access to cancer care was underscored at a recent Women in Nuclear IAEA event held at the Agency’s headquarters in Vienna.
During the event, IAEA Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi, Uruguay’s Minister for Public Health...
