## Indications for use
syngo InSpace 4D - Software Package is a self-contained image analysis software package. This real-time interactive evaluation in space and time for CT volume data sets provides the reconstruction of two-dimensional images into a three-dimensional image format. InSpace can be used to assist the physician in the diagnosis of blood vessels on the basis of a CT Angiography dataset (CTA). For a CTA examination a contrast media (CM) is administered into the patient's blood vessels to enhance the contrast of the vessels in the CTA dataset, i.e. high values for the Hounsfield Unit (HU). The goal is to visualize the blood vessels without other interfering anatomical structures. The syngo InSpace 4D is developed to facilitate a precise diagnosis by removing bone structures from a CTA data set. It can be used in the same way for Non CTA datasets to remove bones or extract and display selected bones, e.g. for the analysis of a fracture.
