it would be nice to have a measurement tool to quantify the degree of stenosis in carotid imagin (US, CT and MR)
two methods exists, NASCET and ECST, personally I prefer ECST which is easier to calculate

Tommy, I'm skeptical about automated (if that's what you meant) analysis of vascular stenosis. You rarely get a regular plaque that can be easily quantified. Also, there are often artifacts from calcifications that can affect calculations.
PACS, 3D MPR, VR - these are our priority features right now...

I'm thinking of a very simple measurement bidimensional tool... just draw first diameter, then draw second one and Radiant makes the % calculation of the ratio between them.
actally I can do it with the line tool but I have to to the calculations

Still, you rarely have a plaque that leaves regular, circular lumen. Thus, basing calculation just on one dimension will be inacurrate...

you are right but is still better than nothing

just a reminder to implement a simple line measure ratio tool that could be used to assess the degree of carotid stenosis or even the degree of vertebral wedge fracture.
as said before it would be a simple 2 segments line measure...
you draw the first line, then the second and the software tells you the percentage difference...
so if segment 1 is long 2 cm, and segment 2 is 0.5 cm, you get 75%

almost one year later I'm pinging again this enhancement request.
I know you are now focused on the local database, but a simple bidimensional "ratio tool" as described in previous posts would be a very useful new feature for RadiAnt.
sorry for being somehow insistant, but this is very useful in ultrasound and would improve usability of RadiAnt.

I guess this feature still must wait a bit for its time...

the lenght ratio calculation has been implemented in latest betas
thanks
thanks
