2016 was an incredible year at Cortechs.ai and 2017 looks to be just as exciting! To kick off the new year, we thought we’d take a look back at the most popular blog posts from 2016, based on the number of views.heads_all.png

  1. Understanding NeuroQuant Reports
    Are you looking to learn more about the NeuroQuant reports? Below we have links to our interpretation guides and report videos to provide our NeuroQuant users some helpful resources when  using NeuroQuant. Read more… 
  2. Understanding the Hippocampal Occupancy Score
    One of the more common questions that we are regularly asked is “what does the HOC represent?” The NeuroQuant Age Related Atrophy report now includes the Hippocampal Occupancy Score (HOC) as one of the parameters, along with volume measurements of the hippocampus and inferior lateral ventricles. Read more… 
  3. The Role of Volumetric Neuroimaging in the Evaluation of Multiple Sclerosis
    Automated volumetric MR imaging offers an opportunity to extend brain atrophy measurements to the routine management of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients by showing regional and whole brain atrophy, which can be monitored over time. Read more… 
  4. Case Study: The Importance of Patient Positioning for Accurate NeuroQuant Analysis
    In this post we discuss a case study detailing the importance of properly positioning and land marking the patient when performing a NeuroQuant volumetric analysis. Read more… 
  5. The Science Behind NeuroQuant: Biomarkers in Early Detection and Evaluation of Neurodegeneration
    Providing an indicator of specific disease states, biomarkers are helpful in measuring and evaluating disease progression. One such biomarker for neurodegenerative dementia is volumetric MRI, performed by NeuroQuant, a leading medical device software for volumetric MRI processing. Read more… 
  6. HOC: A Predictor of Disease Progression from MCI to Alzheimer’s Disease
    The hippocampal occupancy score (HOC) is a biomarker highly associated with the progression from MCI to AD. The HOC is a measurement of the mesial temporal lobe atrophy and combines information from the hippocampus volumes and inferior lateral ventricle volumes. Read more… 
  7. NeuroQuant, Now with FLAIR
    LesionQuant combines the information from 3D T1 and 2D or 3D FLAIR MRI imaging to provide fast, quality lesion segmentation, quantification, and visualization, in addition to brain structure volume measurements. Read more… 
  8. Top 4 DICOM Image Viewers for NeuroQuant
    We have compiled a list of DICOM viewers that we recommend your facility use for viewing MR images. All of the listed DICOM viewers have the ability to send a compatible NeuroQuant MR sequence from their database to our CTXNode (locally installed on your workstation). Read more… 
  9. Celebrating 10 Years of FDA Clearance
    August 10, 2016 marked 10 years of FDA 510(k) clearance for our flagship product, NeuroQuant. The clinical release of NeuroQuant has advanced and revolutionized the quality of patient care by providing physicians with objective, automated, precise and reliable measures of subcortical brain structure volumes. Read more… 
  10. Case Study: The Importance of Processing 3D T1 Sequence for NeuroQuant
    In this post, we explore why NeuroQuant processing uses a 3D T1 sagittal MRI sequence and that using other sequences will generate an unsupported MR sequence error message. Read more…
