FiatLux Introduces Advanced Imaging Software Based on Video Game Technology

FiatLux Imaging Inc. offers its FiatLux Visualize medical imaging application that capitalizes on advanced video game technology to create 2D/3D images from CT and MRI scans at a fraction of the cost of current medical imaging technology.

The company received FDA 510k clearance for the software.

Engineers at FiatLux Imaging have leveraged the functionality of DirectX game programming protocols to create a powerful, easy-to-use medical image analysis tool for use by physicians. The cost of the program is under $3,000 and runs on off-the-shelf PCs and laptops with standard graphics cards, and offers an affordable and portable alternative to traditional, costly, dedicated 2D/3D processing workstations.
