## Indications for use
ClariPulmo is a non-invasive image analysis software for use with CT images which is intended to support the quantification of lung CT images. The software is designed to support the physician in the diagnosis and documentation of pulmonary tissue images (e.g., abnormalities) from the CT thoracic datasets. (The software is not intended for the diagnosis of pneumonia or COVID-19). The software provides automated segmentation of the lungs and quantification of low-attenuation and high-attenuation areas within the segmented lungs by using predefined Hounsfield unit thresholds. The software displays by color the segmented lungs and analysis results. ClariPulmo provides optional denoising and kernel normalization functions for improved quantification of lung CT images in cases when CT images were taken at low-dose conditions or with sharp reconstruction kernels.
