Medicsight inks deal with Spanish digital imaging company

Medicsight, a developer of computer-aided detection (CAD) and image analysis software, has signed a non-exclusive, software license and distribution agreement with Alma IT Systems, a developer of digital medical imaging tools, across Europe and South America.

As part of this agreement, Medicsight's ColonCAD API 4.0 software will be integrated into Alma's Colon viewer, a 3D visualization workstation which interprets CT colonography image data. It is anticipated that the new product will be offered to both clinicians and PACS customers via the Alma 3D workstation and server-based client platforms, according to the New York City-based Medicsight and the Barcelona, Spain-based Alma.
