ProFuse CAD is a post-processing software tool intended for viewing, analyzing, reviewing and reporting imaging files such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Computed Tomography (CT) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) studies.

The software is able to process time series modality data acquired before, during, and after a contrast agent has been administered to the patient. The software allows a physician to evaluate tissue characteristics based on contrast enhancement visible on the time series. The time series data can also be processed to get subtraction image time –series with any reference time point.

ProFuse CAD also provides capability to process a specialized MRI series called diffusion weighted imaging to evaluate tissue characteristics based on water diffusion. Some of the other posts –processing features include multi-planar reformats and registration between images.

ProFuse CAD has a marking feature that allows the user to outline organs with minimal input and also annotate regions in the image in 3D. The software also allows for grading the annotated regions as defined by the user.

After review, the software automatically generates a patient report that provides information like; organ volume, annotations; and grading along with automatically generated screenshots of the annotations in different images.

Planned data from ProFuse CAD can be used for interventional procedures like MR – TRUS fusion biopsies. The data can be displayed on medical device data systems.

ProFuse CAD is used as a tool to review and add to the results of interventional procedures like; adding pathology information when reviewing MR-TRUS fusion biopsy.

When interpreted by a skilled physician, this device provides information that is intended to be used for screening, analysis, and interventional planning. Patient management decisions should not be made based solely on the results of ProFuse CAD.

ProFuse CAD is intended to be used as an image viewer of multi-modality, digital images, including Ultrasound, CT, PET.

ProFuse CAD is intended to be used in a variety of setting such as; medical offices, clinics, hospital, and home office.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
