MR DWI/FLAIR Measurement
Overview
Olea Medical’s MR DWI/FLAIR Measurement V1.0 is an image processing application and Picture Archiving Communications System (PACS) software module. It is designed to assist trained professionals, including physicians and medical technicians, in the imaging assessment workflow for MR Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and MR FLAIR images. The tool processes isotropic images, computes parametric maps such as Apparent Diffusion Coefficient (ADC) maps, and extracts and communicates key metrics like hypointense areas on ADC and FLAIR series, as well as ratios with contralateral information on FLAIR images. This solution aims to streamline workflows and enhance diagnostic confidence, particularly in time-sensitive neurovascular emergency cases like stroke.

What Physicians Need to Know
The MR DWI/FLAIR Measurement tool can significantly aid in rapid stroke detection and characterization by automatically generating stroke maps and providing detailed diffusion parameters. Its integration into a broader platform like Olea Sphere V3.0 allows for comprehensive analysis of both MRI and CT data. Leveraging the automated reporting and mobile notification features can streamline workflow and improve communication in acute settings, ensuring critical information reaches the care team promptly. For neurodegenerative diseases, the Neuro INSIGHT tool offers automated analysis and longitudinal tracking, which can be valuable for initial diagnosis and monitoring disease progression.
Olea Medical's solutions are designed for vendor-neutral integration into daily clinical CT and MRI workflows. The MR DWI/FLAIR Measurement tool is part of Olea Sphere V3.0, which is DICOM compliant. Olea Medical integrates with Pulsara, enabling stroke teams to receive notifications and access imaging results directly within the Pulsara app, facilitating coordinated care and improved efficiency. Olea Medical also collaborates with QT Imaging, integrating advanced visualization and analytics into QT Imaging's Cloud SaaS Platform. The functional MRI solution integrates smoothly with existing neuronavigation systems.
