ContextVision secures patent for skeletal imaging via 3D ultrasound

STOCKHOLM – March 16, 2017 – ContextVision, a leading provider of medical imaging software specializing in image analysis and artificial intelligence, received a patent approval on a new skeletal visualization technology for 3D ultrasound.

The technology is based on a visualization software and improves the potential for early discovery of skeletal irregularities in unborn babies.

SkeletalView, the newest unique product feature, integrates into ContextVision’s groundbreaking 3D rendering product, REALiCE®, which is commercially available. SkeletalView enables clinicians to obtain a more accurate view of the fetal skeleton during pregnancy. This feature helps the clinicians examine the fetus for spontaneous fractures and skeletal malformations. It also facilitates the measurement of bone structures.

“Our visualization product, REALiCE, has received significant industry attention since its launch. SkeletalView adds further diagnostic value, and we expect that the product will be even more attractive to manufacturers of medical imaging equipment going forward,” said ContextVision’s Vice President, Fredrik Palm.
