Radiography

Advanced X-Ray Imaging Technique Could Detect Early-Stage Lung Disease
Chest radiography used by clinics and hospitals plays an important role in detecting respiratory diseases like asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), but is fundamentally limited by the way in which it generates images. Now, a new research study shows that an imaging process used mainly in research labs could detect early-stage lung disease if developed for use in hospitals and clinics. More...20 Feb 2023


Portable, Low-Dose Medical Imaging System Delivers Fast 3D X-Ray Imaging at POC
An innovative miniaturized flat panel source (FPS) enables the design of compact, affordable Digital Tomosynthesis (DT) systems that would allow more patients timely and easy access to low-dose 3D imaging at the point-of-care. More...31 Jan 2023

First Deep Learning AI Model Triages Patients with Chest Pain Using X-Rays
In the U.S., acute chest pain syndrome comprises more than seven million emergency department visits, making it among the most common complaints. However, less than 8% of such patients are diagnosed with the three major cardiovascular causes of acute chest pain syndrome. Now, a new study has found that artificial intelligence (AI) can help improve care for patients who turn up at the hospital emergency departments with acute chest pain. More...19 Jan 2023

Real-Time 3D Imaging Provides First-of-Its-Kind View of X-Rays Hitting Inside Body During Radiation Therapy
Radiation, used to treat half of all cancer patients, can now be measured during treatment for the first time with precise 3D imaging. By capturing and amplifying tiny sound waves created when X-rays heat tissues in the body, medical professionals can map the radiation dose within the body, giving them new data to guide treatments in real time.
