Computer-aided detection (CAD) developer Riverain Medical of Miamisburg, OH, has received the European CE Mark and Canadian device licenses for its OnGuard chest x-ray CAD software and SoftView enhanced chest imaging technology.
OnGuard enables radiologists to analyze digital chest x-rays to identify solitary pulmonary nodules that may be early-stage lung cancer. SoftView is designed to create an enhanced soft-tissue image of the chest by suppressing bone on a standard chest x-ray to help detect and diagnose medical conditions, such as pulmonary nodules, pneumothoraces, and improperly placed lines and tubes.
Both products now are commercially available to clinicians in the European Union and Canada.
