## Indications for use
The ResolutionMDTM 2.1 is a software-based Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) used with general purpose computing hardware for the display and 3D visualization of medical image data. It provides for communication, storage, reformatting, rendering, and display of DICOM 3.0 compliant image data derived from various sources including CT and MRI. The ResolutionMDTM 2.1 device incorporates a Calcium Scoring module which is used to identify and quantify calcified plaque within the coronary arteries. This protocol is performed on non-contrast enhanced cardiac CT data sets. It also includes the Coronary Artery Analysis protocol which is used to visually identify and measure stenoses in the coronary arteries. This protocol is performed on contrast-enhanced cardiac CTA data sets. The ResolutionMD M 2.1 software is intended for use as a diagnostic, review, and analysis tool by trained professionals such as physicians, technologists, and nurses. When interpreted by a trained physician, reviewed images may be used as an element for diagnosis. It is the user's responsibility to ensure that the software is installed on appropriate hardware and that image quality is suitable for the clinical application. Calgary Scientific recommends that users of the ResolutionMD M 2.1 software consult the appropriate American College of Radiology Practice Guidelines pertaining to the anatomy and pathology being studied. Lossy compressed mammographic images and digitized film screen images must not be reviewed for primary image interpretations. Mammographic images may only be interpreted using an FDA approved monitor that offers at least 5 Mpixel resolution and meets other technical specifications reviewed and accepted by FDA.
