X-Ray Phase Tomography with Synchrotron Radiation Offers Better Contrast Than CT Imaging
X-ray phase tomography is an imaging technique that uses penetrating X-rays to create volumetric views through slices of soft biologic tissues, such as tumors, and it offers strongly enhanced contrast in comparison to conventional CT scans. However, scientists still do not know which X-ray phase tomography methods are best suited to yield optimized results for a wide variety of conditions. More...03 Nov 2014
Cassette-Type Digital Radiography Detector Designed to Reduce Waiting Times
Key features of a new cassette-type digital radiography system includes an extremely light weight of 2.6 kg; improved load resistance and drop impact resistance; and reduced waiting time due to shortened exposure intervals. More...28 Oct 2014
CT Software Receives Approval for Quantitative Bone Densitometry Technology
New computed tomography scanner software has received 510(k) clearance from the US Food and Drug Administration to market asynchronous quantitative CT calibration technology for CT-based bone mineral density measurement. More...28 Oct 2014
Digital Breast Tomsynthesis System Receives Approval
New digital tomosynthesis breast imaging technology allows radiologists to look through a mammographic “book, one page at a time.” Clinical trials have demonstrated that the elimination of tissue superimposition can reveal tumors hidden on traditional mammograms and reduces false-positive readings. More...
