Siemens Medical Solutions has introduced syngo Circulation, a cardiac evaluation software package for CT studies.
Circulation offers morphological and functional analysis and reporting in one software application, according to the Malvern, PA-based vendor. It guides clinicians through cardiac evaluation, from automated heart segmentation to coronary vessel segmentation and stenosis quantification to automated functional analysis and reporting, in under 10 minutes, Siemens said.
The software also offers tools for full functional analysis, including cine display for evaluation of wall-motion defects, automated left ventricle segmentation and quantification of ejection fraction, stroke volume, and end systolic and diastolic volumes, Siemens said. Circulation is pending Food and Drug Administration 510(k) review.
