Concepts

MunichHeart was developed in order to efficently process large number of cardiac studies. Initially, the target were cardiac PET data. Since then, it developed into an extensive array of quantitative analysis tools for volumetric data analysis encompassing PET, MRI, SPECT and CT data . This set of tools handles large amounts of multi modal cardiac data and facilitates the extraction of quantitative parameters in preclinical and clinical studies. Furthermore - due to its modular design - it can rapidly be adjusted to specific problems - even with user supplied code.

Quantification (physics->physiology)

Rapid feedback between acquisition and processing

Crossmodal comparison and validation

Use of synergistic information

Fast transfer from research into routine

Identicals tools for preclinical and clinical imaging
