Arterys MICA software is a medical diagnostic application that displays, processes, stores, and transfers DICOM and non-DICOM medical data. It provides the capability to store images and patient information, and perform filtering, digital manipulation, and quantitative measurements. The client software is designed to run on standard personal and business computers and on monitors/screens that meet appropriate technical specifications for image diagnosis.

Arterys MICA includes an optional Cardio Al module which is used to analyze the heart and its major vessels using multi-slice, multi-phase, and velocity-encoded cardiovascular magnetic resonance (MR) images. It provides clinically relevant and reproducible, quantitative data, and has been tested and validated on MR images acquired from both 1.5T and 3.0 T MR Scanners.

Arterys MICA includes an optional Oncology Al module which provides analytical tools to help the user assess and document changes in morphological activity at diagnostic and therapy follow-up examinations. It is a tool used to support the oncological workflow by helping the user confirm the absence or presence of lesions, including evaluation, quantification, follow-up, and documentation of any such lesions.

Arterys MICA software is intended to be used as a support tool by trained healthcare professionals to aid in diagnosis. It is intended to provide image and related information that is interpreted by a trained professional to render findings and/or diagnosis, but it does not directly generate any diagnosis or potential findings.

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