ContextVision Delivers Standalone CT Image Enhancement for Low Dose

Imaging

Cutting-edge CT image enhancement solution enables minimized radiation

exposure without significant hardware or software investment

BOSTON, Mass. and STOCKHOLM, Sweden - November 22, 2010 -

ContextVision (http://www.contextvision.com/), the software imaging

partner for the most recognized medical imaging manufacturers worldwide,

today announced GOPView® CT, the company's CT image enhancement

software, on a standard CPU platform. This standalone cost-effective

CPU-based solution enables OEMs to leverage advanced imaging technology

for low dose CT imaging.  

GOPView CT (http://www.contextvision.com/?id=2850) has had unprecedented

success in reducing noise while enhancing fine structures and edges at

both standard and low dose protocols. Clinical studies and current

installations demonstrate that exceptional image quality can be achieved

in images generated with a 30-70% lower dose. ContextVision strives to

advance the industry's effort to reduce the radiation exposure of both

patient and clinicians.

"Our OEM customers can immediately deliver the most advanced CT

enhancement capabilities to their end customers," said Anita

Tollstadius, CEO of ContextVision. "This standalone system brings

significant benefits to existing CT imaging: facilities can quickly

upgrade existing legacy systems without significant capital expenditure,

and ensure patient radiation is administered as low as reasonably

achievable."

Visit the ContextVision booth at RSNA, Hall B #7544, McCormick Place,

Chicago, November 28-December 3 to see firsthand the image enhancements

made possible by ContextVision's innovative image enhancement technology

for CT. Like all ContextVision products, GOPView CT uses a proprietary

and adaptive algorithm, GOP, which enhances CT output images,

facilitating lower dose imaging with no loss in image quality.
