Ziehm, Pie Medical integrate CV imaging technologies

Mobile x-ray-based imaging technologies provider Ziehm Imaging and cardiology and Netherlands-based radiology software provider Pie Medical Imaging (PMI) have partnered for the integration and distribution of PMI's cardiovascular angiography analysis system (CAAS) with Ziehm’s mobile cardiovascular imaging technologies.

According to the Nuremberg, Germany-based Ziehm, PMI's CAAS software will be controlled on the monitor cart of the company’s C-arm for cardiovascular procedures, which will allow for quantitative coronary analysis, quantitative vascular analysis and left ventricular analysis assessment, including quantitative measurements of the dimensions of coronary arteries, peripheral vessels and analysis of the left ventricle during intervention.
