And free lunch with Giuseppe Toia and I where we'll give a Deep Silicon photon counting update for @GEHealthCare

Wisconsin’s world-class research institutions and universities like the ones here at @UWMadison are leading the world to find new ways to keep us healthy and growing our manufacturing workforce of tomorrow. It’s also what will make Wisconsin the perfect place for a Tech Hub!
Almost here! 4 day CT course, all virtual, well priced. Use promo code #CTSAVE to get a discount.

We've been counting photons using silicon at Wisconsin for months now. Now we're counting awesome results like this one! Thanks @arosenkrantzmd and team, and I'm grateful for our productive collaboration with @GEHealthCare
CAT scan... #Radiology
Virginia airport TSA checkpoint X-ray machine accidentally scans traveler's pet: 'cat-astrophic mistake' fxn.ws/3IVfdxK

UW-Radiology's interventional CT program is leading the way on the latest in technology and clinical applications. Read about our new research! @Prof_TimStick @LStratchko
I'm so glad I don't have to deal with this system or the previous system (all the scanners I do annuals on are rad onc and don't have to go through these red tape loops)

Lol. I guess no Pb bricks for carry ons
2/2 and negatively affected image quality, but could it be there is no shield between the rotating gantry and the belt...?
I can't believe that. It must be stuff falls off and lays on the cover and throws artifacts for all the bags after until they clear it.
Thoughts?
1/2 Went through an airport with analogic CT scanners. tsa worker made a deal about people's bags not being too high, and even had weights to push down people's stuff. I asked a tsa person, she said "if a coat falls out the machine breaks". I assumed it was truncation issues
Imagine what they'll create after I them how to code ;)

I wonder if Santa's vet uses @Equina_AstoCT ?

1, 2, 3, 4,.... billions of photons will be counted today at @UWiscRadiology @uwsmph via Deep Silicon from @GEHealthcare

I disagree. Using a wider beam for the scout is like saying a race car can beat another race car so long as it has a longer hood. That would only matter for really short races....
Replying to @MichaelOumano @AvrahamCooperMD
Localizer radiographs usually use a small (like 5 mm) configuration. For dose reasons, you'd need to lower the mA to the point of photon starvation if used a wider beam. Wide beam doesn't increase scout speed that much I think. t=d/v, with wide beam d gets reduced by a few cm?
