4DMedical files FDA 510(k) submission for CT:VQ™, a non-contrast CT-based lung imaging software product for assessing both ventilation (V) and perfusion (Q) in the lungs.
CT:VQ™ represents a revolution in ventilation perfusion imaging, solving key clinical and logistical limitations across all forms of nuclear ventilation perfusion imaging.
CT:VQ™ solves key clinical and logistical limitations across all forms of nuclear VQ imaging:
• No radiotracers – improved scheduling and accessibility
• Simplified workflows – integrated into routine CT imaging without any additional infrastructure
• Higher resolution and quantification without artifacts caused by clumping or leakage of contrast
• Large install base – leverages the ~14,500 installed CT scanners across the U.S. healthcare system,
including rural and smaller healthcare facilities, which may not have existing nuclear VQ
infrastructure
With the clinical and logistical advantages CT:VQ™ has over traditional nuclear VQ imaging modalities, 4DMedical believes it can rapidly capture a significant part of this market, and over time expects to displace 100% of all nuclear VQ scans.
