Automated Tumor Segmentation and Data Processing ModuleinviCRO's Automated Tumor Segmentation and Advanced Data Processing Module addresses one of the most challenging bottlenecks in preclinical imaging efforts - the time-intensive process of analysing image data. Without automated tools, image analysis requires a large number of manpower hours to identify regions of interest, cull statistical information and create reports and graphs that properly document results. inviCRO's tumor segmentation module provides an automated solution enabling high-throughput identification, segmentation and analysis of SPECT and PET xenograft tumor data, vastly reducing the amount of time resources needed to extract data from imaging studies. With this module, processing and quality verification of entire cohorts of image data is performed in batch on the iPACS® server and individual image analysis or ROI modification is supported seamlessly by VivoQuant™. The iPACS batch-processing functionality offers numerous segmentation methods to ensure reliable and repeatable tumor characterization. Should manual intervention be desired, modifications may be made utilizing VivoQuant's suite of viewing and manipulation tools. Processed data is output to interactive reports with embedded images/movies and associated analysis information. Users have the ability to configure customized report content and layout to include user-defined plots, spreadsheets, data information and interactive links to iPACS image repositories.
