## Indications for use
QVA-CMS is developed for the quantitative analysis of vascular morphology in peripheral arteries and is applicable in both research studies and during interventions in the vascular lab. The automated contour detection can be used to standard digital, subtracted and inverted images. The package reduces significantly the intra- and inter-observer variability associated with conventional visual assessment. It also avoids the very time-consuming conventional manual tracing of boundaries. QVA-CMS analytical software is intended to support clinicians, i.e. cardiologists, radiologists, and referring physicians involved in the assessment of X-ray images. When interpreted by trained physicians these parameters may be useful in supporting a clinical decision process.
