GE Medical Systems shows AutoBone software for the Advantage workstation

GE Medical Systems has introduced a new software program, AutoBone, for the removal of bone structure from diagnostic images.

 The absence of the high-density barriers is designed to reveal blood vessels that are otherwise hidden in traditional imaging views. The technique is designed to optimize surgical pathways with more precise information to allow for less-invasive clinical procedures and increased diagnostic confidence.

 AutoBone software also provides automated bone removal imaging from CT angiography (CTA) studies for the abdomen and lower extremities.

The new technology shows early potential to make a significant impact on imaging workflows and patient care. 

Richard Heller III, MD, RSNA board member and senior VP of policy at Radiology Partners, offers an overview of policies in Congress that are directly impacting imaging.
 

The two companies aim to improve patient access to high-quality MRI scans by combining their artificial intelligence capabilities.
