''While most frontline medical imaging systems are replaced after about a decade of use, this is not entirely true at many nuclear cardiology labs. Some labs, even the ones associated with larger health systems, are still using older single photon positron ...'

''The aims of this study were to determine the objective and subjective image quality of high-pitch computed tomography (CT) angiography of the aorta in clinical dual-source photon-counting detector CT (PCD-CT) and to compare the image quality to ...'

''The first photon-counting-detector (PCD) CT scanner available for clinical use outperforms current state-of-the art CT. PCD-CT systems have shown several advantages over standard CT, including suppression of electronic noise, improved spatial ...'

''The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Sept. 30 cleared the world's first photon-counting computed tomography (CT) scanner, the Siemens Naeotom Alpha. Both the FDA and CT experts say this is the start of a revolution in new CT scanner technology, ...'

''Solid-state radiation detectors use crystalline semiconductors, such as silicon or germanium, to directly convert X-ray photons into electrical current. Such devices outperform other detection technologies in terms of both sensitivity and detection ...'

''Compton scattering is one of the fundamentalinteraction processes of light with matter. Al-ready upon its discovery [1] it was described as abilliard-type collision of a photon kicking a quasi-free electron. With decreasing photon energy, ...'

''Photon-counting detector (PCD) CT is an emerging technology that has shown tremendous progress in the last decade. Various types of PCD CT systems have been developed to investigate the benefits of this technology, which include reduced electronic noise, ...'

''Slowly flapping its orange and black wings, a monarch butterfly sips liquid from a patch of mud. Its proboscis the mouthpart that sucks up liquids grazes the damp soil. For years, biologists knew that butterflies drew liquids up from surfaces ...'

''A newly developed imaging instrument which may improve the sensitivity of optical mammography will be shown by Italian researchers at the OSA Biophotonics Congress: Biomedical Optics meeting this April in Hollywood, Florida, according to a press release ...'

''Patients who receive cardiac positron emission testing (PET) imaging instead of single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) scan experienced a significant increase in the detection of severe obstructive coronary artery disease, according to ...'
