Images Physicians Have Never Seen Before | Matthew Fuld, Siemens Healthineers

In 1971 a slice was 10 millimetres. Photon counting gets to 110 microns. Matthew Fuld on what that makes visible. Book Ian for your event → iankhan.com | booking@iankhan.com SUMMARY Matthew Fuld of Siemens Healthineers explains the resolution jump from 1971's 3 to 10 millimetre slices down to 110 microns, what that reveals inside coronary plaque, and the patients with cerebrospinal fluid leaks who have gone more than ten years without a diagnosis. KEY FINDINGS • Slices of 3 to 10 millimetres in 1971, covering huge sections of brain • Photon counting reaching 0.2 millimetres and 110 microns • Seeing detail inside coronary plaque for the first time • Cerebrospinal fluid leaks invisible to conventional imaging • Patients bedbound in pain, sometimes for more than ten years • Multiple conventional CTs and MRIs failing to find the cause • Once you can detect a condition, you can treat it • Physicians bringing unsolved problems directly to the engineers NOTABLE QUOTES "In 1971 we had 3mm, 10mm slices. Now photon counting gives us 0.2 millimetres, 110 microns." — Matthew Fuld GUEST Matthew Fuld, Siemens Healthineers FULL TRANSCRIPT iankhan.com/futurist/matthew-fuld-siemens-photon-counting Recorded at RSNA 2025 for The Futurist. ──────────────────── ABOUT IAN KHAN — HEALTHCARE AI KEYNOTE SPEAKER Most AI keynotes end with a better understanding.
