## Indications for use
AZE Phoenix software is intended as a radiological review station and for comparison of medical images from multiple imaging modalities and/or time-points. When interpreted by a trained radiologist the images displayed in Phoenix may be used as a basis for diagnosis. AZE Phoenix supports review and comparison by collecting all image data associated with a patient from disparate data servers, modalities, and time-points in a patient centric data list. Users select images from the patient data list for qualitative visual inspection of individual study images and comparison of aligned side-by-side studies or fused visualizations. Users can also make quantitative anatomical measurements in the images including RECIST guideline measurements and save measurements to track changes over time in graphical plots. After selection and comparison of time-series images, individual images may be loaded into AZE VirtualPlaceTM workstation which is launched directly from Phoenix for series specific analysis. In summary, Phoenix enables medical image inspection and diagnosis along with qualitative and quantitative comparison of patient images over time followed by in depth analysis in AZE VirtualPlaceTM workstation. AZE Phoenix is not indicated for mammography use. Lossy compressed mammographic images and digitized film screen images must not be reviewed for primary image interpretations. Manimographic 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.
