ABAMCAD BIOMED CORPORATION · Model 2.2
AmCAD UT Detection is a Windows computer aided detection device intended to assist the medical professionals in analyzing thyroid ultrasound images, acquired from FDA cleared ultrasound systems, with user selected regions of interest. After the initial review of the ultrasound images by the physicians, the device further provides detailed information with quantification and visualization of sonographic characteristics of thyroid nodules. The device is intended for use on ultrasound images of discrete thyroid nodules larger than 1cm, for which a biopsy recommendation is required.
Intended use: An individual software program or group of programs, routines or algorithms that add specific image processing and/or analysis capabilities to a diagnostic ultrasound system configuration. A basic set of applications programs and routines are included with such computer-controlled imaging systems and they can be upgraded to correct programming errors or to add new system capabilities. Some applications software programs or program packages must be combined with specific hardware or firmware configurations in order to function as intended. Applications program packages are typically identified by a proprietary name and "version" or "upgrade" number.
