Ambivu 3D Workstation

AmbiVU 3D is a commercial medical imaging workstation that is compliant with the DICOM imaging and communications format.^[1][2] It is designed for high speed volume rendering of MRI, CT, PET, PET-CT and dual PET-CT datasets.

AmbiVU 3D is available as a stand-alone application for Windows and Mac OS X.

Features

I/O, Reporting and integration

• DICOM import/export
• Built-in mini-PACs
• Integration via DICOM push, HL7 messaging, command-line interface

2D manipulation

• Orthogonal and curved Multi-planar reformatting
• Typical hanging protocols
• Typical image manipulation controls (zoom, pan, brightness/contrast, magnifier)
• Palettes
• Common annotation tools for measuring angles, distances, surfaces, volumes
• Image processing filters (Edge detect, smooth etc.)

Advanced visualization
