Hi Dave! I agree tht GE has developed the amrketplace but that is great news for Fonar because this early going is the hard-to-do R&D tht is needed to make it palatable for doctors to think about actually using. Many millions has been spent by GE to get their systems going and now it appears tht they are selling a few. From a conservative hospital admin view, it's too early to get into it. But demand will grow as applications are proved. We are only in the earlys tage of that. Fonar could not be in a better position to take advantage of this from a design standpoint. Implementation is a whole nother story. As for fram rates, taht line is bit of an exaggeration, one slice per minute to one slice per second was overcome about 5 years ago. The real trick is not in acquiring but in reconstructing the 256 x256 byte image. Powerful procesors are needed here. For REAL xray angio we use up to 30 1024 x 1024 images per second! Gittiapp now fonar!
