Vitrea® is a medical diagnostic system that allows the processing, review, analysis, communication and media interchange of multi-dimensional digital images acquired from a variety of imaging devices. Vitrea is not meant for primary image interpretation in mammography. Vitrea has the following additional indication:
The Endovascular Stent Planning Software application is intended for use with CT (computed tomography) images to assist medical professionals in the analysis, treatment and follow-up of aortic vascular disorders that may require a stent procedure. The software provides 3D segmentation of the aorta and initializes stent measurements based on a template provided by the stent manufacturers. The user can review the 2D and 3D images, verify and correct the results of the segmentation and initialization, and generate a report with the stent measurements.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
