NOVATO, Calif., Feb. 18, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Members of the QT Ultrasound® team of scientists and researchers have authored and co-authored five presentations to be delivered at SPIE Medical Imaging 2019, February 16-21.
The event is the internationally recognized premier forum for reporting state-of-the-art research and development in medical imaging and focuses on the latest innovations found in underlying fundamental scientific principles, to technology developments, scientific evaluation, and clinical application. During the conference, taking place in San Diego, quantitative transmission ultrasound technology will be among the cutting-edge research and innovations presented to attendees. Among those presentations is Radiologic-pathologic validation of transmission ultrasound tomography using microscopy with UV surface excitation (MUSE), findings that are an outcome of QT Ultrasound's collaboration with UC Davis. Correlation of ultrasound tomography to MRI and pathology for the detection of prostate cancer is a presentation of findings that are a result of the company's collaboration with the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
Mark Lenox, Ph.D, QT Ultrasound's Chief Technology Officer, explains, "this is an important opportunity for the company to present the only true 3D transmission ultrasound technology, and for the industry to understand the importance of this emerging trend."

QT Ultrasound scientists, Bilal Malik, Ph.D and James Wiskin, Ph.D have also been invited to be part of the SPIE Program Committee for Ultrasound Imaging and Tomography, a substantial honor that places QT Ultrasound's team members alongside esteemed scientists that are unquestionably considered the leaders in all aspects of ultrasound imaging.
Quantitative transmission ultrasound is an emerging trend and the only true 3D transmission ultrasound technology that uses biomarkers for early detection of breast masses – with no radiation and no compression. Transmission ultrasound together with reflection ultrasound provide highly complementary and synergistic information about breast tissue. With images that show clear information about breast tissue, QT Ultrasound's goal is to identify what is benign and what is problematic.
