RSNA360.HealthImaging.com Deﬁniens (Booth 3672) is introducing a new image analysis application that allows radiologists to analyze lymph nodes volumetrically and compare them over time. The technology enables radiologists to rapidly and accurately identify, analyze and track lymph nodes of interest. It will be commercially available in Europe in early 2009. EDDA Technology (Booth 203) is premiering the new release of its IQQA-Liver Enterprise solution which provides a toolset for real-time assessment of volumetry of liver, liver lobes and segments, hepatic lesions and vascular structures from CT. FiatLux Imaging (Booth 2645) is introducing enhancements to its Visualize 3D application, which is engineered to run on PCs. The ﬁrm’s Visualize 3D software uses DirectX game programming technologies and off-the-shelf video graphic cards to deliver image reformations from CT and MRI scans. Fovia Medical (Booth 9546) is demonstrating native support for integration of embedded polygon objects within volumetric datasets. The technology allows developers to accurately render polygon objects interfacing with a volume containing transparency. The ﬁrm also is demonstrating capabilities of its CPU-based High Deﬁnition Volume Rendering (HDVR) client/server solution. GE Healthcare IT (Booth 5529) is introducing Oncology Workow for Centricity PACS-IW and the Xeleris for Nuclear Medicine Advanced Imaging for Centricity PACS. The Centricity PACS-IW Oncology Work ow integrates PET/CT fusion and SUV measurement capabilities into the web-based PACSIW. This option automatically fuses and displays rotating MIPs from source axial series acquired from multi-vendor PET/CT scanners. The Xeleris provides advanced imaging toolsets for the viewing and analysis of perfusion and metabolic pathways in SPECT/CT and PET/CT studies. Inﬁnitt North America (Booth 4054) is rolling out Xelis, a new line of dedicated 3D software products for advanced viewing and diagnosis. The company is showcasing its Xelis-Colon application, designed to improve detection of colorectal polyps through correlation of 2D and 3D images. Intuitive Imaging Informatics (Booth 4655) is featuring 3D on ImageQube web-based PACS. On ImageQube—a product developed in partnership with Calgary Scientiﬁc—server-based 3D functionality delivers a simple interface for on-the- y 3D rendering in a thin-client approach, bringing 3D visualization to remote physicians. Kjaya Medical (Booth 3472) is showcasing its VoXcell, a FDA 510(k) advanced visualization solution. VoXcell enables physicians to stream 2D axial slices and 3D reconstructions to any basic desktop or mobile PC that can access a cable, DSL, or cellular broadband internet connection. Medis Medical Imaging Systems (Booth 3338) is presenting a measurement software portfolio for neuroradiology and showcasing its QMass MR quantiﬁcation application. The portfolio’s agship product is QBrain for calculation of volumes and volume changes in brain MRI, offering objective insight into disease development and the success of patient treatment. The company also is presenting its cardiac MR software solution QMass MR 7.1, with functionality for the automatic contour detection of the right ventricle in cardiac MR images. Merge Healthcare (Booth 4058) is displaying the capabilities of the ﬁrm’s Cedara I-Response. A PET/CT Analysis package enables users to compare SUV values over multiple time points. A Functional Diffusion Mapping (fDM) Analysis package can track changes in tumors at the metabolic or cellular level over multiple time points. 3D visualization of CT colonography images using Inﬁnitt Xelis-Colon HealthImaging.com Functional Diffusion Mapping (fDM) from Merge Healthcare MIMvista’s VoxAlign Deformation Engine November 2008 | Health Imaging & IT 33 http://RSNA360.HealthImaging.com http://www.HealthImaging.com
