Portable Ultrasound for Needle-based Interventions

Clear Guide Medical intro-duces the Clear Guide ONE, a compact, porta-ble and cost-effective solu-tion in medical ultrasound guid-ance for needle-based interven-tions. The Clear Guide ONE uses computer vision to provide intui-

tive guidance, helping to insert any needle at any angle and depth needed, without constraints. The Clear Guide ONE’s touch-based interface, in-situ projected dynamic guidance and minimal hardware, calibra-tion-free at the point of care, create a con-venient tool to make complex interventions easier without disrupting workflow. It enables doctors to perform more compli-cated procedures in more clinical settings.

Secure Mobile Image ViewingCalgary Scien-tific continues to show their leadership in enterprise and mobile viewing. ResolutionMD™ now has the ability to view all patient imag-es, including DICOM and

non-DICOM. A single view of the record is created regardless of the IT system the data is stored in. Clinicians can access these images from an array of web and mobile devices, share them in real-time and collaborate with other practitioners.

In addition, Calgary Scientific was first to receive FDA clearance for Android devic-es, adding to their current list of iOS and web accreditations.

Steerable FNA Needle

AprioMed’s Morrison Steerable Needle™, pending FDA 510(k) clearance, is the first steerable fine-needle aspiration (FNA)

needle enabling active guidance around objects inside the body. During image guidance, the needle can be steered with live feedback allowing precise needle placement. The 21-gauge needle enables soft tissue biopsy as well as aspiration and injection. With the needle’s enhanced control, it’s possible to make multiple adjustments including major adjustments around bones, organs or neurovascular structures and minor adjustments near the target.

Online Radiology, Pathology and Anatomy References

Amirsys Reference Centers delivers online radiology, pathology and anatomy references for the entire institution. Each reference, written by experts, is compre-hensive and image rich. The powerful Google-like search allows medical profes-sionals to quickly find vital information when ordering and interpreting tests, or when reviewing radiology, pathology or anatomy perspectives. The text is brief and bulleted to help readers absorb infor-mation efficiently. Mentors and educators can download images directly to Power-Point for rapid presentation creation.

Protect Hands from Radiation Dose

Protecting hands often goes over-looked dur-ing fluoro-scopic pro-cedures when the only option is lead

gloves that diminish tactile feel. Now there’s a better solution. BLOXR’s Ultra-BLOX cream protects hands while retain-ing flexibility and tactile feel. The smooth cream is easy to apply and allows users to provide care to their patients while signif-icantly reducing dose. Peeling skin, halted hair growth and discolored nail beds can mean too much radiation exposure.

New Peer-reviewed Medical Imaging Journal

Now accepting submissions and launching in early 2014, the Journal of Medical Imag-ing (JMI) will give the increasingly interdisciplin-ary field of medical imag-ing a home for peer-reviewed

scientific presentations, discussions, reviews and archiving. JMI is edited by Maryellen Giger, Ph.D., professor of radi-ology at University of Chicago, and pub-lished by the International Society for Optics and Photonics (SPIE). JMI’s initial scope mirrors that of the annual SPIE Medical Imaging Symposium and includes imaging physics, tomographic reconstruction algorithms, image process-ing, computer-aided diagnosis, visualiza-tion and modeling, image perception and

observer performance, technology assess-ment, ultrasonic imaging, image-guided procedures and digital pathology.

Motorized Sit-to-stand PACS Tables

The Biomorph Plus Series PACS tables feature a premium motorized sit-to-stand design, with dual surfaces and signature ComfortEdges.

The Nexus 4.0 comes packed with new features, boasting an easier interface for accessing patient studies, clear identi-fication between patient and hospital and streamlined data processes for linking hundreds of studies with doctors and patients without using cloud storage. ETI-AM-Connect has also made it easier for professionals to upload their studies to PACS and share securely with other insti-tutions quicker than before.

Preconception and Prenatal Radiation Exposure Report

NCRP Report No. 174, Pre-conception and Prenatal Radi-ation Expo-sure, covers both ionizing radiation sources and specific non-ionizing sourc-es such as MR

imaging, ultrasound imaging, and radio-frequency fields. Ionizing radiation expo-sures from diagnostic, therapeutic and nuclear medicine are addressed. The risks from ionizing radiation exposure are examined from preconception through pregnancy and during the nursing of infants. Outcomes and associated risks from preconception exposure include infertility, stillbirths, birth defects, genetic alteration and cancer. Outcomes and asso-ciated risks from exposure during preg-nancy include congenital malformations, growth retardation, embryonic and fetal death, mental retardation/ neurobiological effects and cancer.
