Together, they offer the best of both worlds. As a leader in developing clinical applications for advanced MRI post-processing, Olea Medical’s innovative solutions allow for image viewing, analysis and processing of even the most complex MRI sequences, and standardize both viewing and analysis capabilities of functional and dynamic imaging datasets acquired with MRI. Moreover, the new Olea Vision developed by Canon Medical and Olea provides the basis for 40 completely new and unique applications for Canon Medical’s customers. All applications can be accessed by using Olea Medical’s viewer Olea Vision.
