Advanced Oncology Workflow and Toolset Offer Improved Reading and Reporting for Cancer Patients

By HospiMedica International staff writers
Posted on 11 May 2016
A medical imaging systems and Information Technology (IT) solutions provider has announced an upgrade to their enterprise image management system that offers clinicians a new oncology reading workflow.

The workflow includes new native tools for Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) studies, and provides quantitative and qualitative information to speed up and improve image reading.

The new Carestream Health (Rochester, NY, USA) CT Perfusion and Subtraction modules include interactive tools for analyzing and comparing 3-D, CT Perfusion (CTP), and Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA) images. More...
The modules provide tissue perfusion and tissue blood volume data from CT brain perfusion scans, and a DSA workflow that can analyze vessel blockages using X-ray angiography (XA) subtraction. PET segmentation enables users to examine tumor Standardized Uptake Values (SUV) traces on a PET image to help detect early stage cancers. The Vue Reporting module can present interactive hyperlinks to critical images, and can automatically include quantitative analysis results as tables and charts. Vue Reporting also offers bookmarks and lesion management reporting that can be shared using the Vue Motion universal viewer.

Ron Muscosky, worldwide clinical solutions product line manager, said, “The latest upgrade for our enterprise image management platform incorporates advanced tools to aid in tumor detection and tracking. This can help radiologists deliver more meaningful reports while also enhancing collaboration with clinicians and patients. Traditional oncology features cannot adequately address the increased demand we can expect for long-term monitoring of oncology patients as the world’s population ages. And the recent announcement of Medicare payments for CT lung cancer screening can be expected to boost imaging volumes for current and former smokers.”
