RSNA: Qi Imaging showcases PhyZiodynamics inVivo technology

Qi Imaging, the Redwood City, Calif.-based developer of visualization and functional analytics technology, displayed the PhyZiodynamics inVivo supercomputing technology at the 97th Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) in Chicago, Nov. 27 to Dec. 2.

The quantitative intelligent technology enables true fidelity 4D, which is 3D in motion, and provides a gateway to 5D imaging, the functional analytics of motion, according to Qi Imaging (formerly Ziosoft).

inVivo uses an open standard architecture that can be applied to any DICOM imaging modality, and deformable registration software aids in noise reduction and motion coherence.

Qi Imaging also presented MR cardiac strain analysis and CT electrophysiology analysis as a works in progress.

Harvard’s David A. Rosman, MD, MBA, explains how moving imaging outside of hospitals could save billions of dollars for U.S. healthcare.

Back in September, the FDA approved GE HealthCare’s new PET radiotracer, flurpiridaz F-18, for patients with known or suspected CAD. It is seen by many in the industry as a major step forward in patient care. 

After three years of intermittent shortages of nuclear imaging tracer technetium-99m pyrophosphate, there are no signs of the shortage abating.
