GE Medical Systems launches upgraded MyoSight

GE Medical Systems (GEMS) has unveiled the next generation of its Millennium MyoSight dual-detector, variable-angle system for office-based nuclear cardiology imaging.

 GEMS debuted its upgraded MyoSight at the eighth annual symposium for the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology (ASNC).

 The MyoSight system includes the Xeleris functional imaging workstation and the works-in-progress Ignite workflow software to automate exams for greater speed and consistency.

The nuclear imaging isotope shortage of molybdenum-99 may be over now that the sidelined reactor is restarting. ASNC's president says PET and new SPECT technologies helped cardiac imaging labs better weather the storm.

CMS has more than doubled the CCTA payment rate from $175 to $357.13. The move, expected to have a significant impact on the utilization of cardiac CT, received immediate praise from imaging specialists.

The newly cleared offering, AutoChamber, was designed with opportunistic screening in mind. It can evaluate many different kinds of CT images, including those originally gathered to screen patients for lung cancer.
