What is it indicated for?

ScanIP is intended for use as a software interface and image segmentation system for the transfer of imaging information

from a medical scanner such as a CT scanner or a Magnetic Resonance Imaging scanner to an output file. It is also intended as pre-operative software for simulating/evaluating surgical treatment options. ScanIP is not intended to be used for mammography imaging.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
