Synapse 3D Cardiac Tools is medical imaging software used with Synapse 3D Base Tools that is intended to provide trained medical professionals with tools to aid them in reading, interpreting, reporting, and treatment planning. Synapse 3D Cardiac Tools accepts DICOM compliant medical images acquired from a variety of imaging devices including, CT, MR, NMv, and XA.

This product is not intended for use with or for the primary diagnostic interpretation of Mammography images.

Addition to the tools in Synapse 3D Base Tools, Synapse 3D Cardiac Tools provides the tools for specific clinical applications which provide targeted workflows, custom UI, targeted measurements and reporting functions including:

>Functional cardiac analysis for CT left ventriculography images: which is intended to evaluate the functional characteristics of heart

>Functional cardiac analysis for non-contrast MR heart images: which is intended to evaluate the functional characteristics of heart

> Coronary artery analysis for CT coronary arteriography images: which is intended for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of coronary arteries

> Coronary artery analysis for MR heart images: which is intended for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of coronary arteries

> Calcium scoring for non-contrast CT heart images: which is intended for non-invasive identification and quantification of calcified atherosclerotic plaques in the coronary arteries using tomographic medical image data and clinically accepted calcium scoring algorithms

> Cardiac Fusion: which is intended to analyze cardiac anatomy and pathology with a fused image of functional data (e.g. NM image, Bulls eye) and anatomical data

> Aortic Valve Analysis for contrast CT heart images: which is intended for visualization of the heart, aorta regions, and contour of the aorta, measurement of the vicinity of the aortic valve, measurement of the calcification area in the aorta.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
