1) assist with regional assessment of human brain scans, through automated quantification of mean pixel values lying within standardized regions of interest (S-ROI's), and

2) assist with comparisons of the activity in brain regions of individual scans relative to normal activity values found for brain regions in FDG-PET scans, through quantitative and statistical comparisons of S-ROI's.

3) assist with comparisons of activity in brain regions of individual scans between two studies from the same patient, between symmetric regions of interest within the brain PET study, and to perform an image fusion of the patients PET and CT data

4) NeuroQ 3.6 provides added functionality to provide analysis of amyloid uptake levels in brain regions.

The product is intended for use by trained nuclear technicians and nuclear medicine physicians. The clinician remains ultimately responsible for the final interpretation and diagnosis based on standard practices and visual interpretation of all SPECT and.PET data.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
