Medical informatics firm CompuMed reports that the first OsteoGram-enhanced DirectView DR 3000 digital x-ray system by Eastman Kodak Health Group of Rochester, NY, has been installed in Wuxi, China.

CompuMed's OsteoGram is a software-based system for the screening, diagnosing, and monitoring of osteoporosis. Earlier this year, the Los Angeles-based firm announced a licensing agreement that enables Kodak Electronic Products Shanghai to integrate its digital radiography (DR) and computed radiography (CR) systems with CompuMed's proprietary OsteoGram software.

Can AI help chest DDR achieve clinical adoption?
By Will Morton
Chest dynamic digital radiography (DDR) may have received a boost toward clinical use in patients with lung disorders, with researchers developing AI to perform time-consuming analysis involved in the technology.

(a) Raw example of a dynamic digital radiograph. (b) Contrast equalization using contrast-limited adaptive equalization shows improved anatomical visualization. (c) Training data is generated through manually labeling using SLEAP’s graphical user interface. (d-e) Neural network detection schematic. For each quadrant a series of two networks were used. The first identifies the quadrant center, the second using input of the first, then identifies individual anatomical landmarks within a quadrant. (d) Four neural networks were trained, each with the objective of identifying a chest quadrant centroid. The four separate quadrants are visualized as colored boxes (right upper quadrant, green; right lower quadrant, blue; left upper quadrant, red; left lower quadrant, yellow). (e) Serial centroid then anatomical identification. Two quadrant examples showing confidence maps of trained neural networks identifying quadrant centroids (left) and then anatomical confidence maps (right).
