## Indications for use
The cardiac positron emission tomography (PET) analysis tool, HeartSee is a software package intended for use by nuclear medicine and nuclear cardiology physicians and technologists to facilitate image interpretation. Archiving of output data will be supported for clinical diagnostics, quality control, and research. HeartSee contain two fundamental components. First, the software can import cardiac PET images in DICOM format from any PET camera from any camera manufacturer. These images can be reoriented to cardiac axes to produce standard tomographic and topographic displays of relative uptake. A trained, licensed physician can interpret these processed images as per standard practice. Second, the CFR software can quantify absolute myocardial blood flow per unit tissue (cc/min/gm) in stress and rest PET cardiac images and quantitatively assess the coronary flow reserve (CFR).
