This Princeton, NJ,
advanced visualization software developer will
demonstrate new enhancements to its software for
analyzing chest and liver images.
The company debuted version 1.0
of its IQQA-Chest software for viewing digital
radiography chest images at the 2004 RSNA meeting. The
software is designed to help physicians identify,
quantify, diagnose, and report pulmonary nodules.
At this year's show, EDDA will highlight version 1.1
of the software, with advanced DICOM connectivity
(including DICOM Storage, Query/Retrieval, Structured
Report, Send, and other protocols) and a refined work
list design that further improves workflow efficiency,
according to the company.
EDDA will also report on a clinical study, conducted
in five hospitals in China, in which the software was
used for CT-confirmed nodules. The study suggests that
the software improved detection of lung nodules in
screening populations, using both DR and CR technology,
according to the company. The results have been accepted
for presentation at this month's RSNA meeting.
EDDA will introduce IQQA-Liver, new work-in-progress
software to enhance workflow in dynamic liver imaging.
The application is intended to assist the review of
serial multiphase CT acquisitions of the liver using
dynamic imaging techniques. It offers advanced
visualization and quantitative evaluation tools powered
by image registration and segmentation techniques, the
vendor said. It can be used to diagnose and stage
primary liver disease and liver metastases, and for
preoperative assessment.
IQQA-Liver is undergoing clinical studies in China
and is pending regulatory review by U.S. and Chinese
regulatory agencies.
