Shina Systems to launch AngioCt at TCT 2007

Shina Systems, a cardiovascular imaging and analysis software services company, will showcase its new product AngioCt at the Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutic (TCT) Conference and Exposition in Washington D.C., from Oct. 22-24.

"Co-registered with angiography, CTA can be used for determination of stent size and location, optimal C-arm orientation for minimizing foreshortening and vessel masking, and can provide a reference vessel path in cases of CTOs," said Naor Shina, president and CEO of Israel-based Shina.
