Salix Central is a web-based software application that is intended to be used for viewing, post-processing, and analyzing cardiac computed tomography (CT) images acquired from a CT scannerin a Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) Standard format.This software provides tools that can be used for the qualitative and quantitative assessment ofphysician-identified coronary plaques and stenosis in coronary computed tomographyangiography (CCTA) and to perform calcium scoring in non-contrast cardiac CT.Salix Central is intended to complement standard care as an adjunctive tool and is not intended asa replacement to a medical professional’s comprehensive diagnostic decision-making process. Thesoftware’s semi-automated features are intended for an adult population and should only be usedby qualified medical professionals experienced in examining and evaluating cardiac CT images.Salix Central is a prescription use only device.
An interpretive software program intended to be used to analyse non-dental x-ray images (e.g., chest, mammograms, tomograms) to detect and localize suspected abnormalities (e.g., tumours, emphysema, tuberculosis, blunted costophrenic angle) and possibly provide results as clinically relevant tags. It typically utilizes artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning techniques, and may be compatible with radiology information systems, data formats, and medical imaging software programs [e.g., picture archiving and communication system (PACS), digital imaging and communications in medicine (DICOM) format].
