EDDA launches chest CAD

EDDA Technology introduced its enterprise-wide computer-aided detection solution for digital x-ray at the 2006 RSNA meeting. The new version of the company's chest CAD product, IQQA-Chest Enterprise, has evolved from a dedicated workstation to one that can be used on existing PACS review consoles.

IQQA-Chest Enterprise software version 2.0 was recently cleared by the FDA. According to clinical studies, it can improve detection of small lung nodules, ranging from 5 mm to 15 mm, by up to 85%. The company commercially released the system on Nov. 17.
