What is it indicated for?
The Vascular Analysis Package is intended for off-line image processing and
manipulation of digitally acquired datasets from Integris systems. The use of the
Vascular Analysis package is comparable with that on the Integris operator console (the
algorithms used with the Easyvision are identical to those already used on the Integris
systems, although the user interface is different).
With the Vascular Analysis package the user can optimize images and perceived image
quality for vascular application specific purposes.
Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
