Developments in 3D Echocardiography
3D echocardiography (3DE) will gain increasing acceptance as a routine clinical tool as the technology evolves due to advances in technology and computer processing power. Images obtained from 3DE provide more accurate assessment of complex cardiac anatomy and sophisticated functional mechanisms compared with conventional 2D echocardiography (2DE), and are comparable to those achieved with magnetic resonance imaging. Many of the limitations associated with the early iterations of 3DE prevented their widespread clinical application. However, recent significant improvements in transducer and post-processing software technologies have addressed many of these issues.
E-Prescribing: The Path to Physician Adoption of HIT
This white paper addresses barriers to the adoption of Electronic Health Records and presents an e-Prescribing Transaction Model, in addition to the feedback from physicians who have adopted either a full or basic system with positive results.
SPECT/CT - Hype or Necessity A Comprehensive Review of Current Clinical Applications
The focus of this paper is the improved clinical outcomes and diagnostic confidence that is provided by diagnostic SPECT•CT. Clinical confidence translates into conclusive reports that will better serve referring clinicians and patients, the ultimate goal of diagnostic imaging.
Half-Scan vs. Multi-Segment Reconstruction for Computed Tomography Coronary Angiography
Explore Half-Scan vs. Multi-Segment Reconstruction for Computed Tomography Coronary Angiography Considerations on the effects on image quality - a whitepaper by Stephan Achenbach, M.D. University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Erlangen, Germany.
High Information Rate Volumetric Ultrasound Imaging
The real-time nature of ultrasound enables clinicians to have direct interactive contact with the patient during scanning. The key performance measure of real-time imaging systems is the information rate. In fact, the information rate of an imaging system defines the achievable image quality and exam efficiency, therefore driving the diagnostic confidence and speed of workflow. The ACUSON SC2000™ volume imaging ultrasound system introduces an imaging engine with unparalleled information rates to enable new clinical applications and full-volume real-time volumetric imaging – we call it Echo in a heartbeat. ™ Increased information rate enables the ACUSON SC2000 system to achieve continuous full-volume, real-time imaging throughout the study, to assess LV function and valvular regurgitation, without the need for breath holding or interruptions from arrhythmias. Learn more about the time benefits of real-time full volumetric imaging today by downloading the High Information Rate Volumetric Ultrasound Imaging whitepaper.
Inside the Transition to Next-Generation Image Management
Radiology operates in a constantly and rapidly changing environment. Consequently, digital image management is an ongoing project. The common denominators at hospitals across the country include investment in new data-intense imaging modalities, PACS infusion throughout the enterprise, bursting archives and overburdened radiologists and technologists.
Pediatric Cardiology Reporting Grows Up
Find out how the arrival of syngo® Dynamics at two top children's hospitals in the Midwest has helped them quickly move to the cutting edge of cardiology image management and reporting technology. Doctors at both institutions believe they have only scratched the surface of the benefits possible with this pioneering technology in pediatric care and beyond.
