The Thinsight Product Family

ThinsightTM is a set of configurable advanced visualization (3D) modules, designed for integration into a host environment, such as a Picture Archiving and Communication system (PACS) or an Electronic Medical Record (EMR), where image data is stored in a centralized location and viewed remotely by multiple users using a "thinclient" application. Thinsight provides all the key functions and features found in advanced visualization workstations, uniquely packaged for ease of embedding into a host system.

Products

Thinsight is aimed to be used by radiologists and other clinicians who require an effective way of gaining insight in a patient's condition using volumetric images of that patient obtained from a CT, MRI, PET or Ultrasound scanners. Functions and features are packaged into a family of client applications, all enabled by a common server component. These include:

  • Basic 3D: For fast and efficient exploration, pathology detection and diagnosis

  • Advanced 3D: For generating detailed anatomical color images and measuring volumes

  • Vessel Analysis*: For detailed visualization and measurements of blood vessels and vessel-trees

  • Change Analysis*: For evaluating the degree the patient anatomy has changed over time by using automated prior-current registration and comparative visualization

  • Multimodality Fusion*: For correlating patient data obtained from multiple modalities (eg, PET-CT, CT-MRI)

Optimized User Interface

Exploring the contents of 3D data and creating optimized presentation of its contents requires control over many parameters not present in 2D presentations, such as location, orientation, thickness, rendering mode, clipping, masking, color, opacity and more. Designing a user interface that makes all those parameters accessible to the user, and yet is simple to learn, efficient to operate and minimally distracting is a major challenge. Thinsight's user interface design benefits from the decades of experience of Claron's engineers in developing similar systems, combining the best of other user interfaces in the industry. It incorporates such innovations as auto pop-up tool-strips, non-modal interactions, chording of mouse buttons, and drag-locking of the cursor.
