Vital Images of Minneapolis, MN, has announced the release of Vitrea 2, the first Windows NT-compatible version of its Vitrea software for three-dimensional visualization and analysis of medical image data. Vitrea is designed for use in surgical planning and non-invasive diagnostic evaluation of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging.
Vitrea 2 boasts significant performance improvements over previous versions of the software, making most operations within Vitrea, including 3-D volume rendering, up to four times faster than its predecessors, according to the company.
In addition to the increase in speed, Vitrea 2 adds new features to the product. Clinicians can use the new Batch feature to quickly create 2-D or 3-D image sets, digital movies or multiple images for reporting, the company stated.
Vital Images said it is also on track with the development of Vitrea 2 for the Unix platform, and plans to ship the product during the first quarter of 2000.
