First-in-Nation: Integrating ViewFlex X SE ICE with VOLT PFA This week started with a meaningful milestone at St. Bernards Healthcare (Jonesboro, AR) — first-in-nation combining Abbott’s ViewFlex X Sensor Enabled ICE with the VOLT PFA platform. This builds on our prior experience with: • FIH clinical trial use of ViewFlex X SE • Post-FDA VOLT PFA cases as part of the VOLT LMR What stood out was how well imaging + mapping + energy delivery functioned as one ecosystem in a zero fluoroscopy / zero contrast workflow . Key takeaways 🔹 ICE integrated into EnSite X for real-time anatomic confirmation during PFA 🔹 Safe ICE-in-LA workflow and transseptal planning that reduced unnecessary manipulation in small LA anatomy. Integration helped support transseptal decision-making up front—optimizing trajectory and reducing unnecessary catheter manipulation in small LA anatomy. 🔹 Quick LA shell creation to confirm ridge/posterior wall/carina geometry early 🔹 Small atria lesion strategy: integration helped us decide tighter antral lesions vs intentionally addressing a posterior “critical isthmus” when the posterior corridor was inherently narrow 🔹 During VOLT delivery: very low microbubble visualization on ICE and no clinical hemolysis observed VOLT workflow highlights: single-catheter mapping/pacing/ablation, impedance-based contact visualization, balloon-in-basket (8 splines), selective electrode delivery; PVI ± PVI+ as clinically indicated (GA used). Grateful for the St. Bernards EP Lab team and the Abbott clinical support team. #ViewFlexXSE #VOLTPFA #FirstInNation #ICE #EnSiteX #ZeroFluoro #ZeroContrast #EPWorkflow #Innovation #epeeps St. Bernards Healthcare | Arrhythmia Research Group I Abbott I Abbott Cardiovascular

PHOTON COUNTING CT is NOT a better CT It is a NEW imaging modality Photon Counting CT (PCCT) represents a transformative leap in medical imaging, not only as a molecular imaging modality but also as a technology offering ultra-high resolution and functional imaging capabilities. It is fundamentally more than just an enhanced version of traditional CT—PCCT introduces new ways of seeing and understanding the human body, providing critical insights at the molecular, structural, and functional levels. This positions PCCT as a unique imaging modality that requires a fresh approach to technical implementation, operational workflows, and financial planning. Despite the larger upfront investment, PCCT’s ability to drastically reduce downstream healthcare costs makes it a highly valuable investment in the long run. 1. Technical Innovations • Molecular Imaging and Energy Discrimination: Unlike traditional CT, which simply measures the total absorbed energy, PCCT counts individual X-ray photons and differentiates their energy levels. This allows for precise molecular imaging, revealing the composition of tissues and materials at a biochemical level. By distinguishing between different tissue types and contrast agents, PCCT opens up new diagnostic possibilities, such as identifying molecular biomarkers in tumors or distinguishing between stable and unstable plaque in coronary arteries. This capability shifts the focus of imaging from purely anatomical to both anatomical and molecular, offering more comprehensive diagnostic information. • Ultra-High Spatial Resolution: PCCT features significantly smaller detector elements compared to conventional CT scanners, allowing for ultra-high resolution imaging. This means clinicians can visualize fine structures such as microcalcifications in arteries, small lesions in soft tissues, or the intricate architecture of bones. This level of detail was previously unattainable with traditional CT. When combined with molecular imaging, this ultra-high resolution allows for the precise localization and characterization of disease at very early stages, which is essential for early diagnosis and intervention. • Functional Imaging Capabilities: PCCT also excels as a functional imaging modality. By capturing energy-resolved information, PCCT can provide insights into tissue functionality and dynamic physiological processes. For instance, it can detect changes in blood flow, tissue perfusion, and oxygenation without the need for additional contrast agents or scans. This functionality allows for real-time assessment of physiological processes, making it particularly valuable in cardiology, oncology, and neurology for evaluating organ function and monitoring disease progression. • Reduced Noise and Artifact Reduction: Photon-counting technology dramatically reduces electronic noise and imaging artifacts, such as beam hardening, resulting in clearer and more accurate images. The ability to deliver ultra-high resolution images with minimal artifacts improves diagnostic accuracy, reducing the need for repeat scans and ensuring that even subtle abnormalities are detected. 2. Operational Considerations • New Workflow for Molecular, High-Resolution, and Functional Imaging: The integration of molecular, ultra-high resolution, and functional imaging into routine clinical workflows introduces complexity that requires adaptation. Radiologists and technicians need specialized training to interpret and analyze multi-energy datasets that include molecular and functional information. PCCT produces a vast amount of detailed data, requiring clinicians to adopt new imaging protocols and refine their diagnostic approaches to fully leverage its capabilities. • Post-Processing and Data Management: PCCT generates richer, more complex datasets, which necessitates advanced post-processing tools and data management systems. Existing PACS and imaging software may not be equipped to handle such large volumes of data or to process functional and molecular information effectively. This means healthcare institutions must invest in robust IT infrastructure, including upgraded software and storage solutions, as well as provide additional training for staff on new imaging analysis techniques. • Revised Clinical Protocols: The molecular, functional, and ultra-high resolution imaging capabilities of PCCT will likely prompt changes in clinical protocols. For instance, the need for contrast agents may be reduced, simplifying patient preparation and decreasing the risk of adverse reactions. Additionally, the ability to monitor physiological functions in real-time through functional imaging could lead to more dynamic diagnostic procedures, such as assessing the effectiveness of interventions or treatments in real-time. 3. Financial Impact • Higher Initial Investment: PCCT systems are more expensive than traditional CT scanners due to their advanced technology, which includes photon-counting detectors and the computational power required for high-resolution, molecular, and functional imaging. While this upfront cost is significant, it is crucial to view it in the broader context of the downstream benefits and cost reductions that PCCT offers. • Downstream Cost Reductions: Although the initial capital investment is higher, PCCT’s ability to combine molecular, functional, and ultra-high resolution imaging leads to substantial reductions in downstream healthcare costs. Its superior diagnostic accuracy minimizes the need for follow-up tests, repeat scans, or invasive diagnostic procedures, such as diagnostic coronary angiographies. For example, in cardiology, PCCT can precisely differentiate between types of coronary plaque, reducing the need for invasive procedures to assess risk. • Lower Overall Healthcare Expenditures: By enabling earlier, more accurate diagnoses, PCCT can reduce the overall cost of patient care. Early detection of disease, particularly through its molecular and functional imaging capabilities, allows for more targeted treatments, potentially preventing the need for more aggressive and expensive interventions down the line. For instance, early-stage tumor detection via molecular imaging could lead to less invasive treatments, reducing hospital stays and improving patient outcomes, ultimately driving down healthcare costs. • Increased ROI Through Enhanced Patient Outcomes: Over time, the combination of molecular, functional, and ultra-high resolution imaging enhances diagnostic precision, which translates into better patient outcomes. Improved diagnostic accuracy reduces the incidence of unnecessary procedures, minimizes treatment delays, and results in more personalized and effective care. This leads to increased patient satisfaction, better healthcare outcomes, and greater patient throughput—all factors that improve the institution’s return on investment (ROI). • Competitive Advantage and New Revenue Streams: By adopting PCCT, healthcare institutions position themselves at the forefront of advanced imaging technologies. The ability to offer molecular, functional, and ultra-high resolution imaging creates a competitive advantage, attracting more complex and high-value cases. This can boost the institution’s reputation for excellence in diagnostics, leading to increased referrals, new patient populations, and expanded revenue opportunities. Summary Photon Counting CT (PCCT) is not just an evolution of existing CT technology—it is a molecular, ultra-high resolution, and functional imaging modality that fundamentally transforms the diagnostic landscape. Its ability to capture detailed molecular data, visualize minute anatomical structures with ultra-high resolution, and provide real-time functional imaging opens new possibilities for earlier and more precise diagnoses. While the financial investment in PCCT is larger, the reduction in downstream healthcare costs through improved diagnostic accuracy, fewer unnecessary interventions, and earlier disease detection far outweighs the initial expense. For institutions committed to advancing patient care and improving long-term financial outcomes, PCCT is an essential investment in the future of medical imaging. The video attached shows a patient accessing the Hospital for ACS. PCCT can provide ALL the imaging information of the concurrent imaging modalities (CXR, CAG, Echo, CMR) that you see around it... that's a lot! #PhotonCountingCT #MolecularImaging #UltraHighResolution #FunctionalImaging #FutureOfImaging #AdvancedMedicalImaging #EarlyDiseaseDetection #InnovativeCT #CuttingEdgeHealthcare #PrecisionDiagnostics #HealthcareInnovation #MedicalTechnology #CostEffectiveImaging #NextGenCT #PatientCareRevolution

Clotted Cream Ice Cream at Tudors 1799 📍 United Kingdom 🇬🇧 🏆 Best Rated Frozen Dessert Explore more: Originating in the lush coastal pastures of southwest England, Clotted Cream Ice Cream is a legendary dessert currently celebrated as the highest-rated frozen dessert in the world. Unlike standard ice cream, which relies on typical milk and heavy cream bases, this traditional treat achieves its unmatched richness through a centuries-old regional dairy delicacy that elevates the entire mixture into pure, velvety luxury. The structural integrity and unique mouthfeel of the ice cream depend entirely on its core component: authentic Cornish clotted cream. This specialized cream is slowly baked over several hours until a thick, golden, caramelized crust forms on the surface. This process yields an exceptionally high butterfat content, completely eliminating any icy texture and giving the final product a dense, intensely smooth, and buttery consistency that sets it apart from ordinary frozen desserts. The preparation honors a classic profile, traditionally infusing the rich dairy base with real vanilla bean to highlight the natural sweetness and quality of the local milk. However, this decadent foundation also serves as an ideal canvas for diverse flavor variations. It is frequently layered with regional ingredients such as crunchy honeycomb, deep caramel, tart wild berry swirls, or roasted pistachios, adding a complex interplay of textures and flavors to the ultra-rich base.

Ancient Ice in Scorching Sands: How Persians Built Desert Freezers at least 2,500 Years Ago! While Romans were mastering grain storage, Persian engineers were doing something that sounds impossible, making ice in 40 degrees Celsius desert heat, without electricity, without refrigeration, without any modern technology. They built massive dome structures called yakhchals that could store 5,000 tons of ice through scorching summers lasting six months. These weren’t just holes in the ground, they were precision engineered thermal machines that defied physics. Here’s how they worked. In winter, Persians would flood shallow pools at night when desert temperatures plummeted below freezing. By morning, they’d harvest sheets of ice and rush them into the Yakhchal before sunrise. But storing ice isn’t the hard part. Keeping it frozen through summer is. The genius was in the architecture. The domes stood 60 feet tall, with walls 6 feet thick, made of a special mortar called saruj, a mix of sand, clay, egg whites, lime, goat hair, and ash. This created an ancient form of insulation that blocked heat transfer. But insulation alone wasn’t enough. They built massive walls called bodgears, wind catchers, on the north side. These caught cold night winds and funneled them down into underground channels that ran beneath the ice storage. The wind naturally cooled before entering the chamber. The dome shape was critical. Hot air rose to the top and escaped through a vent at the peak, while the ice sat in the coolest layer at the bottom. convection created constant airflow without any mechanical system. Some yakhchals were connected to kanats, underground aqueducts that brought mountain water. The flowing water added evaporative cooling, dropping the temperature even further. The result? Ice cream and frozen desserts in the middle of the Persian desert 400 BCE. Wealthy merchants would pay fortunes for a single cup of ice. Many of these structures still stand in Iran today, 2,000 years later, a testament to engineering that worked with nature instead of against it.

Only if education could be this interactive ❤️‍🔥 I've had a looong wish to build something genuinely useful through vibe coding, and I finally did it. A 3D human anatomy application built with Three.js using GPT 5.6 Sol. It all started with a single design image that I created using GPT Image 2.0. I then used it to generate every 3D organ image, one by one. Next, I converted each of those images into 3D models using Tripo 🔜 gamescom (and no, they didn't sponsor this 😄). After that, I opened Codex, wrote a master prompt based on the design, and gave it the prompt, the design image, and all the 3D models. Codex built the first version beautifully, but there was one big problem. Every single 3D model was nearly 120-150 MB. That obviously wasn't practical for the web and was giving a performance of 16fps. After a few iterations, Codex optimized each model down to roughly 2–5.5 MB while preserving the visual quality, reducing the total asset size from ~900 MB to just 28.6 MB. And each model loads on demand. Along the way, Codex also generated those anatomical illustrations showing where each organ sits in the human body, and even created the interactive hotspot markers that explain different parts of every organ. It handled all of that. The process wasn't exactly one shot, but it also wasn't difficult. You just have to do it step by step. It genuinely felt like building something that could make learning anatomy much more engaging. The inspiration came from Dilum Sanjaya's 3D animal plant cell project. I remember seeing it and thinking, "I want to build something like this one day." And I did it :D Live: Code:
