MIM Software Inc. announced in November the commercial introduction of its MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) Prostate Fusion Software as a fully integrated software on BK Ultrasound’s premium bk3000 ultrasound system. The global launch of this solution for prostate biopsy, bkFusion, was developed in partnership between the companies.
I recently attended the 2016 Annual Meeting of the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) in San Diego. This year’s meeting included a celebration of the 40th anniversary of FDG, a radiopharmaceutical used in the medical imaging modality positron emission tomography (PET) that has had a pervasive impact on molecular imaging. At the opening plenary session, the Henry Wagner Lecture was given by Joanna Fowler, Ph.D., Brookhaven National Laboratory, on “Designing and Synthesizing FDG for the First Human Studies in 1976.” Signage throughout the convention center featured FDG pioneers and quotes on FDG by past presidents.
MIM Software Inc. announced it has received 510(k) U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance to market full MIM products running on tablets through thin client technology such as Citrix.
MIM Software Inc. announced that GenesisCare Australia has selected MIM Maestro as their radiotherapy contouring and deformable registration solutions platform across the Genesis Cancer Care Network in Australia.
MIM Software Inc. has recently collaborated with Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK), nationally recognized by the National Cancer Institute and ranked by U.S. News & World Report as one of the top hospitals for cancer care in the country.
It’s funny how terms catch on. Sometimes it’s the result of an innovator’s brand. No one goes out to play flying disc — we play Frisbee. Sometimes it’s the result of simplification. Everyone in healthcare knows about PACS — even when many (if not most) don’t know what exactly PACS (picture archiving and communication system) means. Then there is that instance when a term is generally used but doesn’t necessarily fit — either by innovation or by general adoption.
Several industries have used cloud solutions for many years, but cloud computing only recently started to be used in healthcare. According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), cloud computing is defined as “a model for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction.”1 As more and more healthcare organizations (HCOs) adopt electronic medical records (EMRs), the cloud database has offered an efficient solution for image sharing, particularly in radiology where it is bridging the gap between referring physicians and radiologists.
MIM Software Inc. is highlighting MIMcloud Portal, a thin client licensing option for the entire MIM software suite at the Radiological Society of North America Annual Meeting (RSNA 2013) in Chicago.
MIM Software Inc. announced newest application yet for Reg Refine in radiation oncology: dose deformation for high-dose rate (HDR) and external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) treatment plans.
MIM Software Inc. has introduced a new version of MIM Encore that provides a single platform for viewing positron emission tomography (PET), computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and nuclear medicine exams. Users will benefit from having all of the imaging data they need available on one workstation. Additionally, integrated quantitative analysis solutions are available for both cardiac and neuro PET and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) providing an all-in-one solution for Nuclear Medicine departments.
