DiA Imaging Analysis announced the presentation of two studies assessing the performance and accuracy of the company's LVivo EF artificial intelligence (AI)-based solution that generates fully automated left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). EF is a main indicator in assessing the global function of the left ventricle. Presently, many readers quantify EF visually or trace endocardial borders that may not be well defined, yielding high variability among results. LVivo EF aims to substantially reduce this variability by generating objective, accurate and fast AI-based EF.

Access to healthcare by rural-living Americans can be difficult. Part of the reason is the wide geographic expanse.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, rural America covers about 97 percent of U.S. land. It is home to about 60 million Americans — about 19 percent of the U.S. population. Many travel 50, 60 or more miles to urban health care facilities to get specialty care or even a computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance (MR) exam.

GT Medical Technologies Inc. announced the presentation of clinical data from a prospective study of GammaTile Therapy in patients with previously irradiated intracranial neoplasms (brain tumors) at the American Brachytherapy Society (ABS) 2019 Annual Meeting, June 13-15 in Miami. These data reinforce the safety profile of GammaTile Therapy, a surgically targeted radiation therapy (STaRT) that is designed to delay tumor regrowth for patients with recurrent intracranial neoplasms (brain tumors).

Canon Medical Systems USA Inc. has received 510(k) clearance on its new deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) image reconstruction technology, dubbed Advanced Intelligence Clear-IQ Engine (AiCE). AiCE uses a deep learning algorithm to differentiate signal from noise so that it can suppress noise while enhancing signal.

A new study reveals black men are less likely than white men to adopt an active surveillance strategy for their prostate cancer. The findings come at a time when a growing number of men with prostate cancer considered “low risk” are opting for active surveillance or watchful waiting rather than immediate treatment with surgery or radiation.
