Overview

The chest is a difficult and complicated region to interpret, and there is more and more pressure on radiologists to find early stage lung cancer, while measuring and characterizing findings is time-consuming. 

ClearRead™ CT with Clear Visual Intelligence™ is a patented and workflow-friendly solution that gives clinicians an unimpaired view of the chest with tools to help improve efficiency, accuracy, and detection of pulmonary nodules by suppressing vessels and machine noise and then automatically detecting and measuring regions of interest.

Features

ClearRead™ CT consists of the following applications: 

  • Vessel Suppress – ClearRead™ CT Suppress is a unique and patented solution that removes vessels and machine noise for an unimpaired view of the chest, driving accuracy and efficiency in the search for pulmonary nodules. 
  • Detect – ClearRead™ CT Detect first leverages the Clear Visual Intelligence™ from the Suppress solution to automatically detect, segment, and measure regions of interest to easily and quickly make informed decisions about findings that may be pulmonary nodules.
  • Compare – ClearRead™ CT Compare automatically matches nodules found in a current exam to the same nodule in a prior exam and provides differential measurements to compare change in regions of interest to make informed and confident decisions about pulmonary nodules.

Benefits

  • ClearRead CT is FDA approved for concurrent reading, allowing the clinician to view the ClearRead series and the original series simultaneously resulting in faster reads and Certainty of Search™.¹
  • Detects all nodule types: solid, part-solid and ground glass.
  • Proven to detect more actionable nodules, improve inter-reader agreement and reduce reading time.¹
    • Reading time decreased by 26%
    • Fewer missed lung nodules 29%
  • Integrated workflow not requiring additional workstations, viewers or logins.
  • Automatically match and view differential measurements of nodules found in a current exam to the same nodule in a prior exam to compare change for a workflow-friendly comparison that allows clinicians to make informed decisions about regions of interest.
  • Programmable routing and exam filtering tools allow you to set protocols for age, device, CPT code and location to receive the ClearRead CT series only on cases that meet specific criteria.
