IB Neuro^TM 1.0 receives FDA clearance     

• IB Neuro 510(k).pdf        
• IB Neuro - ACRIN 6677.pdf

FDA cleared IB Neuro™ provides a significant leap in magnetic resonance (MR) perfusion analysis. The technology is based on over 10 years of award winning research. During that time, more than 1,000 perfusion studies were performed in over 500 consenting patients with brain tumors under institutional review board (IRB) approved protocols.  IB Neuro™ analyzes dynamically acquired MR datasets and generates parametric maps of the brain that include relative cerebral blood volume (rCBV), blood flow (CBF), and mean transit time (MTT).  IB Neuro™ v1.0 software is currently available for the aycan workstation OsiriXPRO and OsiriX applications.  IB Neuro is compliant with healthcare standards such as DICOM and easily integrates into existing medical image visualization systems.  IB does not provide a specific imaging viewer and is not dedicated to any particular workstation or platform. The strength of the IB software approach is the ability to extend the base functionality of any existing viewer, CAD workstation, PACS, etc.

Features:

• Platform-independent library allows for seamless integration into existing server and workstation applications.
• Instantaneously computes and displays a complete set of perfusion maps from dynamic susceptibility contrast MR imaging data using push-button processing including; rCBV, CBF, MTT, and TTP

• Automatically corrects for artifacts in rCBV maps caused by contrast agent leakage across disruptions in the blood brain barrier 
• Displays the dynamic MR signal time course for any chosen brain location
• Automatically exports perfusion parameter maps to the same medical imaging examination in DICOM compatible format
• Automatically generates a report with summary statistics
• Integrates with multiple PACS to assess data and distribute results
• Normalizes perfusion parameters to Normal Appearing White Matter (NAWM) to facilitate comparisons across serial imaging studies in the same patient, and comparisons between patients
• Allows interactive selections of arterial input functions (AIFs) for CBF
   

 Services: 

Because IB products are designed to take the most advanced visualization and analytical technology and simplify it for everyday use, minimal training is required. To assist you, however, services and support are available:

• API and Plug-in Development:  IB will work with you to translate your technology. A well defined scope of work will be agreed upon by you and IB. IB will then leverage its software and development expertise to design a flexible and robust plug-in for you.
• Core-Lab Post Processing Services:  IB will perform the image processing for you and provide you with a professional report. This is advantageous if you would like the post-processed information, but don’t have the time, staff, or resources to perform post-processing yourself. (view sample report)

Support:

With an IB Maintenance Agreement, you will receive technical support and access to free software updates for the duration of the Agreement. Maintenance Agreements are available with a licensed copy of any one of the IB product line.
