Cardiac Case Study

The Cedars Sinai Quantitative Gated SPECT (QGS) option enables automated processing of myocardial perfusion SPECT and gated SPECT data. Provides left ventricular ejection fraction calculations, 3D beating image displays, volume curves and polar maps.

The Cedars Sinai Quantitative Perfusion SPECT(QPS) package is an interactive standalone application for the automatic segmentation, quantification, analysis and display of static (ungated) short axis myocardial perfusion SPECT data.

Blood Pool Gated SPECT is an interactive standalone application for the automatic segmentation and quantification of gated short axis blood pool (Red Blood Cells - RBC) SPECT.

Cedars Motion Correction provides automated motion correction for all types of SPECT data including Cardiac SPECT and Cardiac Gated SPECT data

The Emory Cardiac Toolbox(EC Toolbox) package, developed by Emory University, offers a combination of leading edge protocols for comprehensive cardiac analysis. Protocols include CEqual for quantification of sestamibi and other myocardial perfusion tracers; Emory Gated SPECT for auto-processing of ejection fraction, volume curves, end diastole / systole, and stroke volumes; and 3D PerfSPECTive which provides 3D information generated from CEqual and EGS protocols.

QuantEM is a software application that provides a quantitative renal assessment. The application, developed by Emory University, aids the clinician with the analysis and interpretation of Tc-99m labeled MAG3 renograms. This application's major focus is to provide a series of clinical protocols that can be used in the evaluation of both pediatric and adult renal patients.

Aladdin is an optional software package which allows users to write their own protocols for the eNTEGRA. This package combines intuitive ease of use with flexibility and power of all the eNTEGRA features.

The Image Registration option provides a tool to register images acquired on different modalities or to register functional images acquired at different times. Once the data is registered it can be displayed using the Functional Anatomical Fusion protocol or the PET CT Review protocol.

NeuroGam™ is a comprehensive neurology processing protocol providing cerebral SPECT or PET data analysis.

NeuroMatch™ is fast, automatic program that performs cerebral co-registration of MRI and SPECT or PET transaxial data volumes.

PerfEX™ is an optional expert module to the Emory Cardiac Toolbox software package that provides an automatically generated interpretation of CEqual perfusion results. The module is run from the Polar Maps Options screen of the Emory Cardiac Toolbox package.

Wackers-Liu CQ™, developed by Drs. Wackers and Liu at Yale University, is an integrated Cardiac SPECT Analysis Package that enables automated processing of myocardial perfusion SPECT and gated SPECT data. This software provides visual images and graphs to quantify myocardial perfusion, left ventricular ejection fraction and wall thickening.

4D-MSPECT, developed at the University of Michigan Medical Center in Ann Arbor, Michigan, provides an integrated environment for quantitative assessment of cardiac function and perfusion.

3D Volume Rendering and Surface Shading provides a tool for qualitative analysis of SPECT data in 3 dimensions. The user can choose from 3D surface shading or volume rendering using Maximum Intensity Projection (MIP).

Note: Only applicable to eNTEGRA systems installed prior to January 2002!

The CT/MR DICOM package allows for the importation of CT and MR data and conversion into the eNTEGRA database. DICOM 3.0 CT/MR data may be received from compatible CT, MR or PACS systems.

Note: Only applicable to eNTEGRA systems installed prior to January 2002!

The SPECT/CoDE Iterative Reconstruction option reconstructs planar datasets into transaxial slices, supporting OSEM/MLEM/COSEM iterative reconstruction algorithms, with and without attenuation correction.
