June 14, 2007 - GE Healthcare recently introduced an analysis software package, Perfusion 4 Neuro, that aids in the assessment of the extent and type of perfusion, blood volume and capillary permeability changes, which may relate to stroke or tumor angiogenesis and the treatment thereof.
Perfusion 4 Neuro automated software for computed tomography (CT) provides reportedly quick and reliable assessment of the type and extent of cerebral perfusion disturbances by providing qualitative and quantitative information on various perfusion-related parameters such as regional blood flow, regional blood volume, mean transit time, capillary permeability and Tissue Classification Index.
The Tissue Classification Index is a new tool in the software designed to aid the physician in determining the status of the tissue based on various perfusion-related parameters, during the first six hours after the onset of symptoms.
