OSL-MKT-ImSimv1-Brochure-Rev1

ImSimQA was developed to overcome the limitations of hard phantoms for testing modern medical imaging and radiation therapy software systems.

With the growth of new techniques such as deformable image registration, atlas and model-based auto segmentation, multi-modality image fusion, 4D planning, IGRT and adaptive RT, it is clear that innovative tools are required to commission, benchmark and deliver routine quality control for these new clinical imaging softwaresystems.

ImSimQA closes the loop of testing bycreating infinite test image data, and then applying quantifiable analyses with pass/fail metrics to the resulting data imported from clinical systems.

Benefits

Practical, extensive, cost effective testing for new techniques

Increases confidence in complex clinical software

Reduces the physics QA time on scanners and RT imaging devices

Provides testing not possible with hard phantoms

Advanced tools forcomplex QA

Deformable QA

IGRT QA

Auto-contouring QA

Modules

Base module with virtual phantom library, DICOM editing, transformations & scaling, density & noise editing, DICOM import & export.

Deformation applied to importedDICOM images. Deformable fusionQA analyses for validating DIRsoftware. Import & exportof deformation fields.

Creation of 4D CT image phases from virtual phantoms. Individual structures can be assigned differing motionpatterns. Varian RPM signals can be applied to phantoms.

Extensive contour analysis tools that measure differences in size, position and shape of structures. Pass/fail report that can be printed or exported. Used forsystem validation or user training.

QA workflows

QA Deformable image registration Auto-contouring Adaptive IGRT

Systems that automatically generate images and contours are complex and often regarded as black boxes. Deformable image registration is the basis for auto-contouring, adaptive re-planning and dose mapping techniques. DIR is a complex process that cannot be validated by hard phantoms.

ImSimQA’s flexible image editing and integrated analysis tools, help close the loop of testing these complex clinical systems by generating new test data, and then importing the results from clinical systems back into ImSimQA for quantifiable analysis, with pass/fail results.

ImSimQA provides unique tools to help close the loop of testing, validation and understanding.
