Medicsight, Viatronix in Partnership

Medicsight (London, UK), a developer of computer-aided detection (CAD) technologies and software, and Viatronix, Inc. (Stony Brook, NY, USA.), a developer of diagnostic three-dimensional (3D) imaging software, have announced a partnership agreement to incorporate Medicsight's CAD products, Medicsight ColonCAD API and Medicsight LungCAD API, into Viatronix's V3D Medical Imaging Workstations.

The agreement will allow current and new users of Viatronix's V3D-Colon and V3D-Explorer modules to add Medicsight ColonCAD API and LungCAD API image analysis software tools. Users of the integrated software will be able to interactively view Medicsight's ColonCAD polyp identification marks or LungCAD lung nodule identification marks while viewing a virtual fly-through of the colon or viewing 3D CT lung images using real-time volume rendering.

David Mason, Medicsight USA CEO, commented, "We are extremely pleased to partner with Viatronix for the incorporation of our ColonCAD API image analysis software into the V3D-Colon module. In addition, we believe the integration of our LungCAD API image analysis software into V3D-Explorer will provide radiologists with an innovative tool for the detection of lung cancer and its precursors.”

Medicsight ColonCAD API is an image-analysis software tool developed to be used with computed tomography (CT) colonography (virtual colonoscopy) to assist radiologists in searching for possible colorectal polyps by utilizing a series of filters against image data derived from CT colonography. Medicsight LungCAD API is an image-analysis software tool that helps radiologists in assessing lesions or nodules detected during CT scans of the lung.
