Novel MRI Approach Helps Diagnose Alzheimer’s Before Symptoms Develop

An MRI scan of the hippocampus, the brain’s memory center, in an older person with no signs of cognitive decline and a person of similar age with mild Alzheimer’s has been analyzed with a new technique that shows where healthy brain cells have been lost. This novel MRI approach can identify brain cell damage in people at early stages of Alzheimer’s, before tissue shrinkage is visible on traditional MRI scans. More...

AI Tool Enables Total Shoulder Arthroplasty (TSA) Planning Through MRI Scan

A new tool for Total Shoulder Arthroplasty (TSA) planning performs segmentation of the shoulder bones from shoulder MRI scan, which is usually performed in shoulder healthcare. The segmentation output undergoes super-resolution enhancement to overcome inherent MRI resolution limitations. The end-result is a high-quality, 3D model of the shoulder bones, which allows exceptional planning for TSA, without the need for a CT scan for planning. More...
