    Interventional radiologists at Stanford University Medical Center are using visualization software from EchoPixel that turns 2D CT scans into 3D images so they can virtually view patents’ unique arterial anatomy to help them prepare for endovascular repair of splenic artery aneurysms.

    Interventional radiologists at Stanford University Medical Center are using visualization software from EchoPixel that turns 2D CT scans into 3D images so they can virtually view patents’ unique arterial anatomy to help them prepare for endovascular repair of splenic artery aneurysms.

    According to Zlatko Devcic, MD, a fellow of interventional radiology at Stanford University School of Medicine, splenic artery aneurysms—a rare and life-threatening clinical disorder—have complex anatomy that require meticulous pre-procedure planning.

    “Treating splenic artery aneurysms can be very difficult because of their intricate nature and anatomic variations from patient to patient,” says Devcic. “This new platform allows you to view a patient’s arterial anatomy in a three-dimensional image, as if it is right in front of you, which may help interventional radiologists more quickly and thoroughly plan for the equipment and tools they’ll need for a successful outcome.”

    Researchers presented results of their pilot study of EchoPixel’s True 3D system on Sunday at the Society of Interventional Radiology annual scientific meeting, held this week in Los Angeles.

    In the study, three radiologists used both the new True 3D interactive virtual reality technology from EchoPixel as well as AquariusNet from TeraRecon—a commonly used visualization software system that displays images on a standard 2D platform—to independently evaluate 17 splenic artery aneurysms in 14 patients.

    Rough transcript: dillon county joins several other south carolina counties to sue opioid distributors. patsy: the county filed suit against three major drug manufacturers. the lawsuit accuses the companies of fueling the opioid epidemic with lethal overshipments of prescription drugs. the suit asks the companies to pay for costs associated to the epidemic... including law enforcement.. first responders... and other public safety services. patsy: marion and horry counties also filed lawsuits over "lethal overshipments" of opioids in-state d-hec stats from 20-16....horry county had the most opioidoverdose deaths in the state... with "101"
