Jiangsu province, China-based high technology
company Jinma Yangming Information Technology Co.,Ltd. has officially released
a world-leading 3D medical imaging post-processing system at its headquarters
in Changzhou National Hi-Tech District. In addition, the company has also
launched a next-generation regional medical imaging information product, the
IPAD remote diagnosis system.
Jinma Yangming Information Technology's 3D
post-processing system uses 2D graphics, including computed tomography (CT),
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasonography (US), as imaging sources,
in tandem with a computer graphics learning algorithm to recreate 3D simulation
images that intuitively display body organs, and, in particular, inner surface
anatomy and pathological changes of body lumens, as a tool for disease
diagnosis, 3D positioning, simulation operations and interventional therapies,
among others.
With the system's advanced 3D volume rendering
(VR), operators can adjust tissue transparency in real time and show metal
implants and atherosclerotic plaques as well as other objects contained in
tissues, providing the clinician or diagnostician with a highly enhanced sense
of spacing. The 3D VR eliminates outline sketches of tissues, greatly
simplifying the operating process. Renal pelvis, ureters and bladders are
displayed through deboning, cutting and rotating, while preserving images of
the spine and pelvis. Organs and bones associated with the urinary system can
be distinguished with different colors. Tumors of various systems and organs
enhanced by contrast media can serve to bring together the images of bones,
vessels and soft tissues simultaneously in one 3D image, accurately positioning
the tumors and allowing for the identifying of the status of the progression of
the disease and the degree to which surrounding tissues, organs and vessels
have been affected, including the degree of invasion and translocation. The
processed image can be rotated so that the diseased area can by observed by the
operator from any angle, allowing for a more comprehensive analysis. The images
can be clipped, cut, drilled and made into automated films to clearly reveal
the hidden parts of the lesion, providing more abundant image information so
that clinicians can provide much more accurate diagnoses.
Founded in 2004, Jiangsu Jinma Yangming
Information Technology has already grown into the largest research, development
and manufacturing facility for medical device software in Jiangsu province. The
company has received the designations of "High-tech Enterprise in Jiangsu
Province" and "Software Enterprise in Jiangsu Province" as well
as ISO 9001 Certification and CMMI level 3 certification. In addition, it has
obtained the registration certificates for the medical devices it produces as well
as the license to produce medical devices as required by the local authorities.
The firm has established long-term cooperation and software outsourcing
relationships with major global players including Siemens, GE, Philips and IBM,
and has had its products successfully adopted by over 800 organizations across
China. The company services hospitals and patients via its scientifically
innovative business model. The remote features allow for access to the images
at every level of China's healthcare information network including at the
regional, hospital, hospital department and single product level. The remote
regional imaging diagnosis system with its unique sharing and training features
is the first of its kind in the country and the only regional centralized
remote imaging diagnosis system that has been deployed to date in Jiangsu
province.
