October 11, 2007 - Biospace Med announced that it has received 510k clearance from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to market EOS, a new digital X-ray imager created for 2D imaging use, reportedly allowing images to be obtained with a low dose of radiation and capable of long-length digital imaging.

Viatronix Inc. will release enhancements to its V3D-Colon including a Colon CAD interface that reportedly seamlessly integrates CAD without any change in workflow, automatic measurement of maximum diameter/volume of polyps with morphology analysis, new “translucent view” color schemes that are said to be user-editable and a creation of reports compliant with C-RAD guidelines.

Medicsight will be showing its ColonCAD product, integrated with a number of Advanced Visualization partners, including Vital Images, Viatronix, TeraRecon and Barco. The system reportedly offers a safe, rapid and minimally-invasive means of imaging the entire colon. ColonCAD aims to release the full potential of CT colonography by improving the accuracy and productivity of detecting polyps in the colon.

The syngo Colonography PEV (Polyp Enhanced Viewing) by Siemens Medical Solutions is an automated second reader tool for the visualization of lesions in the colon. The solution helps radiologists to detect polyp-shaped objects between 6 millimeters and 25 millimeters in size and can now be used both in clean-prepped and solid-liquid tagged protocols.

The SecondLook Digital CAD by iCAD is designed for digital-based mammography facilities to assist in the early detection of cancer. Based on an open-system architecture that offers a best-in-class CAD solution, SecondLook Digital is reportedly optimized for leading digital mammography systems including GE Healthcare, Siemens Medical Systems, FujiFilm Medical Systems, Hologic, IMS Giotto and Agfa Healthcare.

The Medipattern Corp. announced seven new B-CAD products: six versions of B-CAD for breast ultrasound imaging, including B-CAD 1.2.1 and B-CAD 2.2 and one version for breast MRI (magnetic resonance imaging).

In addition to CAD for film-based mammography, Carestream Health will show CAD software for its CR-based mammography platforms, as well as CAD software for other vendors’ full-field digital mammography (FFDM) systems. The CAD for CR and FFDM solutions are available outside of the U.S.

The company will also demonstrate Chest CAD and bone mineral density testing on its KODAK DIRECTVIEW DR 3000 platform. These applications are currently only available in China.

Carl Zeiss MicroImaging GmbH, a provider of microscopy solutions for a variety of research, clinical and industrial applications, introduced ZEN 2007, a new software for laser scanning microscopes, reportedly creating an optimal fusion between state-of-the-art technology and intuitive user-guidance.
