Thanks for the investigation, Luis. It is very good news that the system appears to be functionig well, what with RSNA just 3 weeks away. I will definitely go by their booth.

Luis, Have we finnally started to run patients through at Faulkner or are we still in the fine tuning process? Boston is the place to work all the bugs out of the system being so close to the MAMO facility. I'm sure Dr. Rhoden gave it her best shot down in Tx. but I have to belive that the support will be 100 times better close to home and the Co. will do everything in its power to turn this Aurora into a highly marketable Mammography Machine. I believe the pace will really begin to speed up as far as getting this Aurora recognized as the best way to screen women for breast cancer. Hopefully we have started some sort of revenue stream with Faulkner on line. Ken

Luis, I hope they have done a lot of these subtracting stuff, when you take the difference between two large numbers to get a small one the error is quite large. What is the time difference between the taking of the images? Do they have any problems with over laps, these are soft tissue that have a tendency to "hang" differently in different images. Also, small difference in body temperatures between the two measurements might yisld minor shifts and if the difference are very small, howw is this affecting the final Gd image only?

Finally, I presume they mus take two images rather than one, does this not pose some competitive problems?
