7/2/2010: Liquidation for SharpView
Dear Customers, We are very grateful for your business and interest in our SharpView CT product for CT radiation dose reduction. We at SharpView have been dedicated and worked very hard to deliver high performance products with good service and support. We kindly regret to inform you that the board of SharpView AB, with headquarters in Sweden, has decided to put the SharpView Company into liquidation.

5/6/2010: Research results presented at ARRS
Massachusetts General Hospital presented at the annual American Roentgen Ray Society (ARRS) meeting research results using SharpView CT. Research leader Sarab Singh says: "The SharpView CT advanced filters basically lower image noise, hence allowing us to lower the radiation dose. The advanced filters make noisy images less noisy, and that way, we can lower radiation dose." 

2/27/2010: Results for heart presented at ECR 2010
The European Congress of Radiology, ECR 2010, was held March 4-8th in Vienna. At the Congress, research results for heart indications using SharpView® CT image enhancement software was presented.

Research results presented at ARRS

The advanced filters make noisy images less noisy, and that way, we can lower radiation dose." 


In an effort to find ways to reduce CT radiation dose, the research team studied the effects of adaptive image filters on image "noise" or graininess, and radiation dose.

"Regardless of radiation dose, post processing with image filters improved subjective noise for both chest and abdominal CT and helped lower the CT radiation dose levels for chest by up to 40 mAs and for the abdominal CT by up to 100 mAs," said Singh in a statement.

Mass General will plan to use these filters routinely for CT imaging, Singh said.
