Centricity PACS-IW with Universal Viewer Product Usage: Usage: Centricity PACS-IW with Universal Viewer is a device that displays medical images (including mammograms) and data from various imaging sources. Images and data can be viewed, communicated, processed and displayed within the system or across computer networks at distributed locations. Lossy compressed mammographic images and digitized film screen images must not be reviewed for primary image interpretations. Mammographic images may only be interpreted using an FDA approved monitor that offers at least 5 Megapixel resolution and meet other technical specifications reviewed and accepted by the FDA. Typical users of this system are trained professionals, including but not limited to radiologists, physicians, nurses, medical technicians, and assistants.

There is an error related to the relative geometry between fiber tracts in a fiber group and images. The error occurs in the following situations: A group of fibers has been selected using the VOI functionality and put into a fiber group. This is done with images series A visualized in the 3D viewer. Then a new images series B is visualized in the 3D viewer. If image series A and B have the same geometrical resolution (pixel sizes and slice distances), the coregistration matrix taking A to B will not be applied to the fiber group, and therefore the fiber group will in general not be positioned correctly on B in the 3D viewer. Furthermore, if the fiber group is exported as a new image series the fibers could be misplaced, and similarly if the fibers are visualized in the MPR on B, the positioning will not be correct. The misalignment will be equal to the rotations/translations necessary to align A with B.

nordicTumorEx 1.0 nordicTumorEx is an image processing software package to be used by trained professionals including but not limited to physicians and medical technicians. The software runs on a standard off-the-shelf PC workstation and can be used to perform image viewing, processing and analysis of medical images. Data and images are acquired through DICOM compliant imaging devices and modalities. nordicTumorEx software enables processing and visualization of dynamic MR imaging datasets of the brain, showing properties of changes in contrast overtime. It generates various parametric images calculated from the image intensity variations and provides tools to extract and visualize such parametric properties within specified volumes of interest. Structural datasets providing anatomical information can be sued to evaluate the extent of a specified sub-volume, such as a tumor. Comparison of imaging studies performed at different study dates may also be performed to support the diagnostic process.
