How important is radiation protection for you? For your staff? For your patient? Every facility and hospital talks about radiation safety. It’s clearly important. Every manufacturer says they have the best technology and that they provide “the highest standards of...
Omega Medical Imaging is an innovator in the design, manufacture, delivery, and support of the first and only AI image-guided ROI interventional systems for hospitals and facilities around the world. But what does that mean to you, to your hospital or program? AI...
Since their introduction in the 1950s, C-arms have allowed physicians to monitor medical procedures in real time and achieve better results for their patients. At the time, image intensifiers were the leading technology. About 50 years later, flat panel detectors...
When a doctor or hospital decides they are ready to build or grow an interventional program, they must decide how they are going to equip their labs. At the center of these labs is the medical imaging system – the X-ray system – that serves as the eyes of the...
Artificial intelligence, or AI, is a game-changing technology that delivers much in the way of improved productivity and process control. In medical applications, AI is frequently associated with image analysis. In fact, AI shows great promise for endoscopic image...
In an internal comparative study, Omega Medical Imaging proved significant radiation reduction in cardiology is achieved when using an AI image-guided ROI system compared to a non-AI system. Radiation dose is reduced in both fluoro and cine modes of acquisition across...
Are you looking for a new career? A fresh start? Maybe something exciting that makes a difference in people's lives? If so, maybe a career in healthcare is for you. Many of the jobs you find in other industries, you see in healthcare as well – jobs like sales,...
Many leading advanced endoscopists are limited by the technology options available to them. Most do not have a dedicated lab – a dedicated system – and must share an interventional lab with other specialties. This creates real inefficiencies with respect to scheduling...
Region of interest (ROI) technology is proven to substantially reduce radiation exposure during interventional procedures. Over 25 years ago, Stephen Rudin, Ph.D. et al., wrote an article in RSNA Imaging & Therapeutic Technology that touted the benefits of ROI...
The technology behind radiation safety during interventional procedures is changing. There are new technologies, new radiation-saving modalities available that dramatically reduce the risk of radiation exposure to not only the physician and staff, but to the patient...
Artificial intelligence, commonly referred to as AI, touches almost every aspect of modern life, including medicine. AI is a game-changing technology that promises much in cardiology. In fact, AI has become a buzzword for subspecialties like image analysis. But AI...
How important should radiation protection be in cardiology? To the interventional cardiologist? To their staff? To their patient? While physician and staff safety is important, obviously the safety of the patient is important as well. But what protection is available?...
