GE Brings Molecular Imaging into Treatment Planning Arena

October 31, 2007 - GE Healthcare brought to ASTRO 2007 its next-generation volume PET/CT application PET VCAR that reportedly complements GE’s approach to personal patient management and the need to assess each patient individually.

With PET VCAR, GE’s suite of Oncology applications, including Lung VCAR, Advantage4D, AdvantageSim MD and 4Dx, one can span the patient management spectrum from early health to disease management. The Discovery family of PET/CT scanners is further enhanced by PET VCAR, which reportedly provides easy access to valuable quantitative information over time, allowing efficient image assessment and tumor response management.

PET VCAR offers several workflow enhancements for both single and multi-exam review, including exam-to-exam auto-registration, tumor segmentation and quantification, and multiplanar image review.
