  1. 667. (I) Photon-Counting X-ray Detectors: A New Generation of Medical X-ray Imaging

    Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

    Medical x-ray imaging has revolutionized modern medicine. A necessary and critical component of a medical x-ray imaging system is the x-ray detector. Over the past 50 years, x-ray detectors have evolved from film-screen systems, to computed radiographic cassettes, culminating in flat-panel digital x-ray detectors that directly capture image data during patient examination, bypassing the need...

    For almost five decades, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has been on a monotonic technological progression towards higher and higher magnetic field strength. This is largely due to the fact that, as any physicist will tell you, nuclear magnetization and therefore MR signal strength scales with the applied field strength. Why then go backwards to a low magnetic field to explore advanced...

    MRI provides exquisitely detailed images of brain and spinal cord anatomy and pathology. MR images are multi-planar, radiation free and have a greater sensitivity and specificity than either CT or ultrasonography. Although an engineering challenge, the placement of MRI systems in the operating room will revolutionize neurosurgical care. Surgical navigation was repeatedly updated by iMR images...
