Computed Tomography
Software
A computed tomography (CT)
software package includes
CT calibration, cone-beam
reconstruction, and 3-D real-time
visualization and analysis tools within
the same interface. Featuring an
easy-to-use five-step CT interface
and high-speed graphics processing
unit (GPU), the efX software also
is capable of automatic calibration
and rapid CT reconstruction. Two
scan modes for easy and advanced
CT are offered. An EasyCT mode
guides the user through calibration
and reconstruction. Users can switch
to AdvancedCT mode at any time
for access to a full set of parameters
for CT reconstruction. Depending on
the number of projections, the GPU-based reconstruction module offers
speeds that range from five to 50
times faster than other CT software,
according to the supplier.
