Intuitive Imaging Informatics (I3) highlights include new advanced visualization technology.
I3 will be directing attention to PET fusion functionality for its Rational Imaging PACS package. The internally developed CT/PET fusion capability features user-selectable color maps, real-time PET transparency manipulation, automated multiplanar reformatting (MPR) for orthogonal views, and integrated maximum intensity projection (MIP) for 3D rotational displays, according to the Bell Canyon, CA-based vendor.
In other advanced visualization developments, I3 has incorporated MIP into its basic Rational Imaging application, allowing for high-resolution, 3D reconstructions of phase-contrast MR images or similar relationally oriented acquisitions, according to the firm. Users will be able to segment out anatomic regions, subselect regions, and obtain reconstructions of only those segments.
I3 has also enhanced its graphical user interface (GUI), adding a new look and feel to the application.
In addition, the company will also discuss upgrades to its ImageQube Web-based PACS network. Additions include the ability to support paperless workflow, teleradiology scheduling, instant messaging, integrated 3D capabilities, and teaching files.
