Oracle Releases Imaging and Process Components for Fusion Middleware

March 15th, 2010 | No Comments

Two new components of Oracle Fusion Middleware, Oracle Imaging and Process Management 11g and Oracle Forms Recognition, will in theory allow businesses to better automate document- and image-centric processes such as accounting and claims processing. Imaging and Process Management 11g also offers solution templates and streamlining for processes involving paper-based and electronic transactions. As Oracle moves into 2010 looking to build on its financial successes from late 2009, it still faces the need to integrate its Sun Microsystems acquisition while challenging IBM in the systems arena.

Oct. 30, 1958: Medical Oops Leads to First Coronary Angiogram

October 30th, 2009 | No Comments

1958: In the basement laboratory of an Ohio hospital, a cardiologist accidentally injects a large amount of dye into the small vessels of a patient’s heart during a routine imaging test. To the doctor’s great surprise â€” and relief â€” the dye doesn’t send the heart into a fatal spasm, and this happy accident marks [...]

Innovation@Intel: Medical Imaging with Many-Core

October 16th, 2009 | No Comments

Physicians today are collecting more complex imagery on their patients than ever before. Combined with the need to accurately diagnose disease and develop treatment strategies in a minimally-invasive manner, new imaging modes, methods, and hardware are needed. In collaboration with the Mayo Clinic, Intel is presenting a paper at the IEEE VisWeek09 Conference today titled “Mapping High-Fidelity Volume Rendering for Medical Imaging to CPU, CPU and Many-Core Architectures,” outlining how medical imaging benefits from the parallel processing architecture in the Intel microarchitecture, code-named Nehalem. Medical volumetric imaging requires high fidelity, high performance rendering algorithms. We’ve now achieved more than an order of magnitude performance improvement on a number of large 3D medical datasets.

Nanotube-generated X-rays may revolutionise airport scanners, radiotherapy

July 29th, 2009 | No Comments

In a breakthrough that may revolutionize radiotherapy and airport baggage scanners, scientists have successfully generated X-rays using carbon nanotubes.
The new method could allow real-time three-dimensional scanning.
“If you look at current imaging technology, technically very little has changed since Wilhelm Rontgen discovered X-rays more than 100 years ago,” said Otto Zhou, a materials scientist at the [...]

Now, a â€˜molecular imagingâ€™ technique for breast cancer screening

July 25th, 2009 | 1 Comment

Researchers at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester have developed a less expensive “molecular imaging” technique for detecting cancer in dense breast tissue using radioactive tracers.
Although mammography is quite effective at lowering mortality related to breast cancer, it does not work equally well in all women.
It frequently misses tumours that are there at the time [...]
