IT Certification Program Simplifies Patient-Specific Simulation

By HospiMedica International staff writers
Posted on 12 Sep 2012
New technology allows clinicians to rapidly, and as part of their operative preplanning, create virtual patient cases, on which realistic procedures can be practiced in a safe, simulated environment.

Mentice (Gothenburg, Sweden), a leader in medical cardiovascular and endovascular simulation, announced that Pie Medical Imaging (Maastricht, the Netherlands) will be the first company to join its VIST Case-It “Segmentation to Simulation” certification program.

VIST Case-It lets users of Mentice’s VIST range of high-fidelity full-physics simulators easily import anatomy data from real patients to a simulator, using professional computed tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (CT/MRI) segmentation tools and standard hospital workflows. More...


To ensure flawless workflow integration and operation between third-party segmentation solutions and the VIST medical simulators, Mentice has launched an open certification program for validating compatibility with the VIST Case-It technology. Pie Medical Imaging is the first company to obtain this certification for their 3mensio Vascular segmentation suite and can now under the certification program offer verified compatibility with Mentice’s VIST simulators.

“In the future we will undoubtedly continue to see medical simulation becoming more directly integrated into existing hospital workflows. With our exciting new VIST Case-It technology, physicians have the ability to themselves create patient-specific simulated cases using the industry standard segmentation tools they are already familiar with. We are extremely pleased to welcome Pie Medical Imaging to our certification program, their products are some of the most innovative and appreciated on the market and are a perfect match for this technology,” stated Göran Malmberg, CEO of Mentice.

René Guillaume, director of sales and marketing at Pie Medical Imaging, “We are proud to be the first to offer verified compatibility of our product to Mentice’s customers. Our 3mensio Vascular suite is essential for patient-specific planning of endovascular procedures. Using both 3mensio Vascular and Mentice’s VIST will ensure every physician to be fully prepared for every procedure with the most advanced technologies.”

Mentice will be presenting the VIST Case-It technology at the CIRSE congress in Lisbon (Portugal) from September 14-19, 2012.
