The KineGraph VMATM software is a quantitative imaging software application intended to be used to process digital image files. It is designed for physicians and clinical professionals who are interested in the analysis of motion in medical images, particularly in musculoskeletal images of the spine. KineGraph VMATM software permits users to review static and dynamic digital lumbar and cervical spine images acquired with the assistance of the Motion Normalizer patient handling and data collection device, which is designed for use by imaging technicians and intended to assist with patient lumbar and cervical bending and data collection during imaging. KineGraph VMATM software also facilitates quantitative assessment of vertebral motion in digital medical images. Information about the motion of selected objects, such as bone structures, can be generated and presented in the form of a 'motion analysis' report containing graphics, charts, and text.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
