3D Cardiac Imaging Software

Medical imaging specialist Barco (Kortrijk, Belgium) has launched a version 6.1 of its advanced visualization and analysis software Voxar 3D (three-dimensional). Voxar 3D 6.1 incorporates a powerful range of clinical applications for computed tomography (CT) cardiac analysis. As part of the release, Barco also has launched the Voxar 3D Enterprise, designed to deliver rapid, hospital-wide access to advanced visualization inside the radiology reading room and throughout the enterprise.

"Voxar 3D 6.1 is designed and optimized to accelerate all aspects of the clinical workflow. It includes a full suite of advanced visualization tools and clinical applications to take maximum benefit from investments in PACS [picture archiving and communications systems] and the latest scanner technology,” said Calum Cunningham, general manager of Barco's Voxar Product Group. "In simple terms, Voxar 3D 6.1 makes it faster than before to get through the cases physicians read on a daily basis. As such, Voxar 3D 6.1 clearly demonstrates our commitment to delivering advanced visualization tools and solutions that enhance performance and drive productivity.”

The new Voxar 3D 6.1 comes with a full range of optional clinical applications. One of these is Voxar 3D Cardimetrix, a powerful application for structural and functional analysis of CT cardiac images. The system provides an efficient, intuitive-reading methodology for cardiac 4D analysis, coronary vessel analysis, left ventricular analysis, and calcium scoring. The user-friendly application integrates many automated tasks to increase the speed of reading and analyzing. This includes automatic heart and aortic route extraction, automatic contour detection, and the ability to automatically segment the entire coronary tree. It makes it possible for clinicians to read and report a full cardiac work-up in less than 10 minutes.
