Chimera architecture removes those boundaries by providing the power to conduct nearly 100 billion mathematical operations per second to perform image processing, using computational techniques used in X-ray CT scanners, deep space telescopes and spy satellites.
ENGADGET: NVIDIA intros Tegra 4i with built-in LTE, details Chimera camera tech with HDR
More and more people are being diagnosed with these lesions as we use more medical imaging technology such as ultrasound, X-ray and CT scanning.
The early use of fracking to get at reserves previously thought of as unrecoverable, shortly after the turn of the 21st century, came about after exploration companies began examining geologic formations using x-ray computed tomography, or CT scanners.
Philips filled it with big-ticket medical equipment like magnetic resonance imagers, CT scanners and X-ray devices.
Caught in the middle is GE's medical division, the old home of current chief Jeffrey Immelt and the biggest seller of X-ray, MRI, ultrasound and CT-scanning equipment in the world.
Other new services include enhanced X-ray, ultrasound, and MRI and CT scanning facilities.
The technique can provide excellent, detailed images of the body's soft tissue and is an alternative to using X-ray techniques such as computed tomography (CT).
In fact, while the low-risk patients might not receive any benefit from the test, there is at least some risk from radiation--which is higher for a CT angiogram than a traditional X-ray.
Additionally, I have a chest x-ray every six months or so and a yearly CT scan.
FORBES: Physician Organizations Voluntarily Heal Themselves To Save Healthcare Dollars
An X-ray showed that he had pneumonia, and a CT scan revealed something even scarier: His right lung was filled with a thick, gelatinous fluid.
Had I waited for the cost of a CT screening to come down, chosen the cheaper X-Ray alternative or just done nothing in the hope that I could save enough money to afford the scan, I would have been dead long before the free market got around to accommodating my personal budgetary issues.
CT, which stands for computed tomography, builds up a more revealing picture than a simple x-ray by taking a series of cross-section pictures.
