December 20, 2012 — At the 98th annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), Royal Philips Electronics continued the Imaging 2.0 journey by showcasing several new features for existing image modalities that deliver clinical benefits to customers while simultaneously answering the economic challenges clinicians face worldwide.
The latest advances in cardiovascular imaging are usually shown first at the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) annual meeting, the largest radiology show in the world, held the last week of November in Chicago. After spending five days walking three expo halls filled with more than 600 product vendors, the following is my editor’s choice for the most innovative new cardiovascular imaging technology.
There were several evident trends on the show floor at RSNA 2012, including interest in software fueled by Stage 1 and 2 meaningful use requirements, new mammography solutions and innovations in imaging hardware.
November 27, 2012 — At the 98th annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) in Chicago, Royal Philips Electronics unveiled the company’s next chapter of its unique approach to radiology.
At ASTRO 2012, IBA featured a scale model install of its Proteus One compact proton system combined with the Philips ...
The last decade has seen a significant advancement in imaging technology due to developments in the hardware and software space. It was clear to the radiologists, clinicians and imaging scientists very early on that no single imaging modality, be it magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT) or positron emission tomography (PET) could meet all the needs of a clinician treating a patient.
The introduction of hybrid technology — positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/CT -— has revolutionized the imaging world. This technology allows the combination of the exquisite anatomic details provided, for example, by CT, with the important and much needed functional, physiologic or metabolic information provided by molecular imaging.
November 14, 2012 — Philips has launched in China the first ever digital broadband MR, Ingenia. At a launch ceremony themed “Definition of Digital MR, The Future of Imaging” hundreds of foreign and Chinese experts and scholars in imaging and clinical applications gathered together to discuss the digitization trend of MR (magnetic resonance) and the clinical performance of Ingenia in neuro, body and cardiac applications.
The BrightView XCT is a single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) imaging system designed to provide quality, efficiency and accuracy. Full iterative technology (FIT) in SPECT and CT uses advanced algorithms for the truest picture possible.
At RSNA 2012, Philips Nuclear Medicine is introducing new clinical innovations for its positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) systems.
