## Indications for use
CMRtoolsTM and plug-ins VentricularTools TM & ThalassaemiaToolsTM is a software device used for viewing and analyzing cardiovascular magnetic resonance images. It allows high performance image manipulation, 3D visualization, and advanced image processing on a standard PC without dedicated hardware. All software plug-ins have comprehensive quantification facilities with full analysis session recording for providing comprehensive audit trails. It contains an image viewer for importing DICOM images, browsing through patient datasets, viewing cine images and performing region-of-interest analysis. Plug-ins are used for specialist cardiac assessment including VentricularTools for left ventricular assessment and ThalassaemiaTools for T2* image quantification. It is important that CMRtools is only used to view and analyze human cardiac and or liver images acquired with a cardiovascular magnetic resonance scanner. CMRtools must not be used to view or analyze images acquired with any other type of imaging device. The software must not be used to view or analyze images of any part of the body except the heart and or liver or the vascular system. Furthermore, the software must not be used to view or analyze images acquired from animals. Only DICOM images will be used for presentation, display and diagnosis.
