New software from CorTechs Labs is designed for post-MRI analysis of volumes and relationships between intracranial structures, for quantification of regional brain atrophy in patients with neurodegenerative disorders.
NeuroQuantT™ is a breakthrough medical device that can make quantitative MRI measurement a routine part of clinical practice. It brings sophisticated, accurate, and fully automated MRI post-processing capabilities to the physician’s desktop.
This software provides neurologists, radiologists, and clinical researchers with a convenient and cost-effective means to quantify the volume of the hippocampus and other structures.
NeuroQuantT™ can be configured to provide automated MRI quantification solutions…
CorTechs Labs’ President, Michael E. Smith, PhD, sums up the basics of the software :
These techniques first minimize scanner image-acquisition artifacts that have traditionally been a barrier to standardized, automated MRI analysis. Intelligent image analysis and feature extraction methods are then used to recognize anatomical structures in the data that are widely known to atrophy in some diseases. Numerical information about the sizes of such structures is extracted from the images and provided to the referring physician in the form of a convenient and easy-to-read report, with values that can be immediately compared to age-appropriate normative data.
